    Before I fork out :) for a new one.

    Anyone have a rigid fork they'd part with? Must be straight bladed with disc mounts.

    Thanks.

    New but it appears to be about the best value to be had. The exotic ones on e-bay are not bad either. Looking for one myself but I think I'll hold out til christmas and see if herself will spring for one!

    Make sure you know if you need a suspension adjusted one or not!

    Yeah they are all in around €75 or so. Exotic CF for around €120.
    I was hoping to pick up cheaper...

    They are replacing 80mm travel forks so I suppose 420mm would be about right taking the fork sag into account. Too short would probably make it unstable.

    Just looking at those perhaps 440mm !!!
