 |
|
Built myself a rockhopper singlespeed and want to go rigid any reccomendations of a good fork that won't get me killed by the wife?
Also, Does the length matter?
Any help will be great. |

You can get a pretty good fork from Dimension. There other options perhaps a few dollars cheaper but the Dimension forks are good. Price range from $50 to $80 roughly.
You would need to know.....
threaded or non threaded headset or threaded vs non threaded steerer tube
1" or 1 1/8" steerer tube diameter.
If the Rockhopper is a failry newer model then it should be a threadless 1 1/8 steerer.
If you have any questions feel free to give me a call.

Click o the "photos," link on top of this page.
At the top of the photo page look for the link "Upload a file."
And then follow the directions for file size and whatnot.
See...
