Retro Newbie
Pace RC35 forks, good nick, lazy elastomers, needs one of the circlips for the bottom (Halfords 80p) came on a hack bike project frame, no use for them.

Features include........

*36 bolt all alloy construction, giving multiple chances of structural failure.

*Grease port, to give the uninformed the illusion of "servicing" thier forks every week by pumping so much grease in that it comes out of the bottom.

*Lazy elastomer travel system with no rebound damping.

*8 bolt crown system for super flexy ride charachteristics.

*CARBON FIBRE! lower legs, the latest in high tech super light materials!

*Adjustable brake bosses to run your V-brakes on the front or back!!!

*3.5mm leading axle dropouts for super responsive steering.

*1"1/8 threaded steel steerer.

*Super dooper (hardly marked) Kona control centre headset included!

*Comes with the guaranteed eventuality of folk over 30 saying.....

"christ, i always wanted a set of those" "where'd you get them" "etc, etc, etc"

Having sucessfully listed the gains of owning these, theyre in decent nick, lazy elastomers thoug, just about any will fit them though, no rust, no corrosion, carbon is 8.5/10 alloy 8.5/10, Kona headset included too.

They are maybe a bit old hat, but you can at least rebuild repair and upgrade them! and still serviceable fter al this time.
They look more like Mxcd or early 36's tho?
Good price!

Ha, just a bit cynical, I've had a few sets as they have evolved, you just couldn't ride them full speed these days!

Just being a bit ironic in my description I suppose, perhaps a failed attemt at humour :)

I dunno the going rate, but if they dont go, i've got an old kilauea frame they can go with.

the are mxcd's i think.

Not at all mate, made me laugh :D

I think most of us on here are aware of the limitations of older kit with the way modern riding style has evolved :wink:
