Suspension corrected fork height

[darren]

Hey folks,

I've been digging around for info but still feel a little confused. I need to build a rigid fork to fit a mid 90's m/l Yo Eddy that was built to have suspension. Is there a magic axle-crown height? What is the range that folks have been riding and still feels good? Thanks a lot.

415mm. more important is the rake number.

And if that proved difficult, a 420mm wouldn't be bad either.

Thanks guys. On the rake, should I be somewhere other than 1.5"?
