  • Rigid Forks + Maxle?

    Does anyone make these? Quite fancy some rigid forks, just for fun, but I'm not really up for getting a new front wheel as well as it would be just for an occasional change.

    So, find me some shiny carbon rigid goodness with 20mm axle please?

    Cheers

    Ive always wondered this too, but in all my research I came up with nought.

    I found some DMR forks and some Fire Eye ones (that look like rebranded DMR?) but they're DJ forks, but I don't want heavy and stiff.

    http://www.shandcycles.com/ this chap will make you some for £160ish I think, not maxle though just normal 20mm. Also wolfhound cycles but they are very expensive.

    Probably too stiff/heavy for you though. I'd run them if I was going rigid, though. Rather have something strong because you won't have the suspension to soak up big hits and take the strain.

    X-Lite forks will be 15, not 20mm 🙂

    the answer for fast fork changes would be a split race, and a wheel ready fitted with 20 mm to the fork.

    Or just buy a second crown race.

    pretty much what I do already. I have a CK crown race on my 20mm rebas, to swap to the O-O carbon forks I change the adaptors in the SSC hub and swap everything over. Can do it in 15 minutes but would love to not have to swap the adaptors over – you have to take of the 6bolt rotor to do it.
