Wanted - Fork and Brake Calioer

Post by macskive »

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

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?!

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.

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
