First i am 76 years old and probably been around bikes longer then you are old. The fork i showed is a hole bunch better than the cheap Schwinn forks on the market . jeffh was looking for a good one, so i found one.

Her is another and are the same guys that make the Schwinn style i posted.

That one is a beauty. Once they put a disc brake mount on it I will get real interested.

To me it looks like it'd be a lot more solid in turns, think the truss system used would prevent twist. May be wrong though.

I've run that style, but not sunlite brand. I don't trust them without a motor, let alone with. monarchs are better, but I wouldn't take one much past 40. should say a lot seeing as I've taken homemade springers past 100. that girder fork looks to be very good quality.

Thanks for the info guys. I haven’t purchased a fork yet. Still trying to decide on one. You guys posted some good looking options. I’m not really into the double spring style fork. If I were doing a board tracker, that style would be perfect.

Does it need to be a springer fork? Why not use a Mountain bike style suspension?
