Hi Geeter!

c) Suggestions? Buy a proper rigid fork. Aestheticly much more pleasing, period correct and suspension is only 1 factor that defines comfort. The old bikes ride often much better than people expect. Why not giving it a try?

If I go rigid, (no pun intended), how heretical is it to put a not-fat fork on my Wicked? My LBS has a Cro-mo fork that they'll sell me for $25. Its not Fat, I don't know the manufacturer, but it looks like a period fork, not like one of those heavy stancioned looking rigid forks that you see on Ebay for $350. I have attached a photo that the seller sent me when I bought my bike.

New Fat registration.

Just found this site. Thanks. I am in the process of restoring my 1986 Fat, frame #86475, original paint was red with yellow fork. I just stripped the old paint and found among other things: 1. the frame #. 2. bottom bracket cable routings are Campy. 3. Drop outs are Suntour. 4. My frame also has a "drain hole" just above the bottom bracket. "see builders forum". I am also in need of a 1" threaded fork to replace the original. Any out there or ideas? Thanks.

Photos only show on the forums in the actual size that you uploaded them in. Your originals that were uploaded are tiny, and won't expand on the web.

 

[fatf**knchance]

Thats sweet ! Im guessing it took a while.

 

[Yo Eddy!]

Would have loved to see the result after all that effort you put into it, but unfortunatety my laptop does not open .xls files.

Cool anyway

 

[Doug Carter]

Hey Melvin, I'm working on another method of posting and keeping track of everything in the database. The Microsft Excel spreadsheet is an easy way for me to enter it document everything, even on a Mac. Do you not have MS Office? I want to blow up Microsoft, but I still have the need for Office...
