Wifes bike (when it's built it will be based around a '98 Avalanche frame) needs a bouncy front end..

It will probably never be used in anything more than leisurely bimbling along roads, seafront, singletrack, footpaths.. some gentle XC perhaps..
The original purpose of the forks doesn't really matter (to her), the remit is that they must look good (to her), be V-brake compatible and that they are reliable, work and are not high maintenance.

We've narrowed it down to. . .

Junior T's
Tora's
Hanebrink ZZYZX
MZ/MX Comp/Race
Manitou Minute 3.00

She likes triple-clamp and the budget is as little as I can get away with (but £100 max) :lol:

Any ideas on the above or recommendations of similar (but better) option??
 
i'd go for the mz comps meself m8

reliable as a rock cheap and easy to get

tripples will just dent the frame and make it like a chopper ,but good fun
for jumping off things tho
 
Scrap the Toras'.. not seen a pair with v-brake fittings (since I bothered to look :lol: )..

The comps were what I was searching for originally tbh.. but then some triples popped up and she likes them :roll:

Didn't dawn on me the chance of frame dentage . .

It's all that trickylads fault.. since his Zaskar grew on me (not literally) and I showed it to her, the longer front end look is required . . ;)
