As above, i am on the lookout for a fork and brake caliper.
Required spec:
Straight steerer, min 18cm.
Disc brake compatible.
Clearance for 650b x 47mm tyre.
Something like a surly straggler/ disc trucker or croix de fer fork would be ideal. Steel or carbon preferably.
Also on the lookout for a single mechanical brake caliper to fit to said fork. Must work with a drop bar lever.
Anyone have anything kicking about that they would be willing to part with?
Thanks

Re: Wanted - Fork and Brake Calioer
I have a BB7mtn in my spares box if you want it?
Bit ratty looking but works fine, I will need to dig about for the bolts/spacers/cone things.
Stick some money in the bear feed fund, I’m happy to post it it out if you fancy it?!

Re: Wanted - Fork and Brake Calioer
Thanks for the offer Gari but i should have specified that i need a caliper for use with drop bar levers.
Re: Wanted - Fork and Brake Calioer
No problem, for full disclosure my gravel/touring/adventure bike(delete as appropriate) has been running mtn BB7s since I built it 2yrs ago. Works fine for me.
Re: Wanted - Fork and Brake Calioer
Running with drop bar levers you mean? If you are having no issues, i'll give it a try then, thanks. Will drop you a message.
Re: Wanted - Fork and Brake Calioer
I’ve got a black 650b straggler fork, need to check the length of the steerer. I got it for a project that didn’t end up happening. I’ll get it measured up and message you
Re: Wanted - Fork and Brake Calioer
That could be ideal, thanks.

Still looking for a fork if anyone has one. Thanks
