I got these on ebay.The seller didnt know what they are.
Strangely the lower legs separate from arch section just below the brake pivots,in fact its the bosses that holds both parts together.
The stanchions measure 110mm [closer to114mm]and the axle to crown length is about 425mm.I think that is a 100m travel,would that be right :?
Air champers on both sides with schrader valves under the black plastic caps,no external adjustment that i can see other than to adjust the volume of air you pump in.
They had a fair bit of oil inside ,i guess thats the lube though and not for damping,i could be wrong though.
Date under the crown reads 00 so that puts it @ 2001
I though it might be a z4 air,but im not sure that one had the coated stanchions.
Some twat has covered the whole fork in multi layered hammerite :evil: ,thats going to be fun removing.
I can see some red on the legs and some black on the brace it that helps anybody with their identification
After id taken them completely to bits ,ive found its in great condition inside and out,inc the stanchions,theres not any wear that i can see.
It's good enough condition i think to be worth sorting,.:?
The crown i got the metal polish on last night,there are still quite a few scratches and scrapes but its polished up not too bad for ten mins work
The only problem ive found [apart from the missing mounts and bosses is the seals.I cannot get them out no matter what i do.
the same twat that used the hammerite painted the seals as well,so theyre not happy about being unseated.I might have too cut them out and try and find replacements
Anybody got any ideas as to what they really are?.
