A lot of people but Girvin forks on Orange frames and they have much of the issues that triple clamp forks have.

Depends on the frame and the travel of the forks I guess.

I knew a guy BITD who had triple clamps on a Shogun frame. He used to swear by it though personal I thought it looked and road awfully.

In the pace hardware brochure of 2000 it shows the rc37,s on a RC200

I once ran some Manitou X-verts on a Santa cruz Chamelon frame,looked rubbish though.If you're gonna put some on a hardtail just make sure the frames strong enough,like the Sante cruz.

If you ask me, DONT DO IT :shock:

Personally, go for a long travel single clamp fork. I had triples BITD and have really gone off them. They look naff and there is only a really small market that want them now, should you ever decide to sell them on.

Please think long and hard about doing it.
