Ti rigid forks

Anyone make these, preferably 20mm bolt through but reckon thats pushing it.

I'm off out, so thanks for any replies. 8)

Black sheep cycles make some great ones. They do it pretty much custom so you can order what you like.. They take a lttle time to produce but James will produce them eventually .. He's a small outfit but they are very nice forks.

I think Steve potts does some too… But you might need a big wallet!!!

Be prepared to do a bit of self hair pulling if dealing with james at blacksheep…..

Used to be Ti Project 2. That was many years ago. Try fleabay or Retrobike. No chance of 20mm though, and I don't they'll be new enough to have disc mounts.

if Morati still make them they'd be worth a look – or get a Eastern factory to knock you up a copy

i got an old fork of theirs thats the nuts, these are the guys that made the original Sunn Ti frames which came complete with x-rays of the welds

thanks again people, is james a very slow worker?

About five years back I used to have a pair of the On-One TI forks on my Singlespeed. Not 20mm bolt thru but dammed stiff and with disc mounts, only problem with them I suppose is that they had an axle to crown measurement based on the bikes of the time. Again try Ebay or Retrobike I guess.

black sheep 29er fork. a very nice fork , but not 20mm

Thats a cracking pic sofaking. What is the bike?

My singlespeed has a set of the on-one ti forks. Suit the bike perfectly

I just sold a pair on ebay, and are made by a factory I have contacts with still in Taiwan.

I might investigate (though I have been drinking, and you'd be best to email me about this).

ooh can it look something like this but with a maxle. I'll email you over the xmas period. Enjoy your drink 😀

If you keep drinking (I can send you another bottle) how about a 29er Ti fork 🙂

I've an original Jones fork spare now I've upgraded to a fat fork somehwere in storage (moving house)

But would this gap fit your frame

Yes that's right 😉

Stop picking me I didn't get to bed until 2 this morning after many many beers…..

tails – that fork in your pic looks like it'd be stiff/harsh as ****, even if it was made of cheese. I that's what you want, why titanium ?

Would they be I don't know much about fork construction. Why would they be any harsher than sofakings?

Brant,
Had a pair of those forks a few years back and sold them on the obvious bay, really wish I'd kept them for my Inbred, however I would be very interested in a pair of bolt through rigid Ti forks if they became avail.

tails, its a phil wood piss off

john, can you email me about the Jones forks ( i dont have your email addy..) to rockstarracingAThotmailDOTcoDOTuk, id be interested to hear how much you want for them……and im sure they will fit the array of frames im considering….

Saracen used to make Ti forks for their Kili Ultra – I was offered £400 for the forks alone a little while back!
I declined the offer though, they're still on my bike. Very short though (suspension corrected for about 65mm) and non-disc.

They're unbelievably bonkers light and surprisingly comfortable but also a tad flexy when pushed hard!

26" Black Sheep ti forks on the Rigor.

I have some One one ti forks in the garage, think they're 420 a to c.

well, if that's a 20mm axle, the legs must be about double that, or at least 35 or so (so somewhere arond a fox 36 stanchion?) – sounds **** stiff to me !

sofaking's look about half that

Wolfhound make a 20mm raked rigid fork (in steel though) looks the don though

JohnClimber,

I am interested in your Jones forks, what is the minimal headtube length needed to be able to install it?

Here you go Joop, any use?

Stevek

Wouldn't be interested in selling your On One Ti forks would you?
Missed Brant's forks on ebay but have been looking for some for my original Tinbred for ages…

Thanks

JohnClimber,

That's very helpful, my headtube is 120 so that should go, don't you think?

Can you mail me a few pics and your price?

Thanks,

Joop

joop. Out of interest what frame would you try and fit the Jones fork to?

sibex but not 20mm

I will

You do know that the truss fork is designed for a none suspension corrected frame I take it?

Explosion In a Spaghetti Factory

You think it won't work cause the Moots is sus corrected? I thought if the ac length is the same as for example a Reba it could work..?

I wouldn't imagine the AC length is the same as a Reba though…

You could try it but I'd imagine the truss fork would be way too short and also has too much offset.
