    Carbon Fork needed, 1" steerer carbon or aluminium.
    Preferably an Aero fork- black would be good but consider anything.
    On complete off chance- specifically looking for fork for a Felt B12 TT bike or any Felt TT bike should do.
    What's out there or any ideas of cheapish source for one
    Thanks.

    I have an old 1" look carbon fork from my old bike lying around. I'm not sure what ancillary bits and pieces are about.
    I could swap for one of your cassettes? 11-23?

    Thanks for that Countrykid. Id seen them, pricey so I'll hang for a while.
    Could you post a pic of the Look fork at some stage. Thanks


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,236 ✭✭✭Idleater


    Here you go, as photogenic as I'm prepared to make it given the temperature in the shed :-(

    About 27cm of steerer tube. The headset is some fsa from the old bike circa 1999.

    I have an unbranded one inch black carbon fork.
    It has never been used. Aluminium steerer is uncut.
    I bought it last year from a bike shop in England.
    The forks are bladed.
    I would have to get 100 euro for it.
    If you're interested, I will put up a couple of photographs tomorrow.
    I didn't use it, because I thought it wouldn't suit my bike.

    This sounds like what I've in mind - price is higher than id intended but more important is to check if'd work for me. I'd need photos as the fork crown shape could impede part of the overhang from frame behind at the back of headtube. So photos up if you can and we can take it from there.
    Btw where u based?

    This is the best, I can do for the moment.
    Its a link to the fork.
    I bought the forks from this shop.

    http://shop.kinetic-two.co.uk/advanced-kinetic-one-elite-race-carbon-forks---1-inch-steerer-31-p.asp

    I can't move on price.
    I'm sure, you can see, they're a bargain at the price.

    I'm in Drogheda.

    @TheDocMan. If you want these, will you let me know, please.

    @krissovo, if the Doc doesn't want the forks, and you're still interested, I'd be happy to sell to you.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,715 ✭✭✭TheDocMan


    Work away lads if these forks suit ye. id love to keep as many options as possible open but I couldn't justify keeping the guys who were good enough to bother replying, hanging on when they've a possible sale. Hope I don't regret it.
    L' etape , thanks I'll see if I can get them to do a deal
    And funky, thats a good spot. Could be useful if for some reason there was a fit issue with fork crown/ headtube interface - could return them. Thanks.
