I recently picked up some "spent" suspension forks (RST, elastomer...) from sometime during the mid 1990s with a removable crown. I might not be the first one to do it, but making some rigid legs for these old crowns could breath new life into many old bikes, without having a boring old unicrown fork, because it's important to give an old bike some style.
You will have to be careful to make sure the new tubes are exactly the same size (within a thou...) as the previous legs. Otherwise you won't get the right amount of "holding power".. Remember the 3 Rules: 1. Looking good 2. Going fast 3. Safety Third!
Learn something every video 👍👌
Cheers Chris
Hey Chris, thanks for watching!
wow.. another video.. give me some popcorns! ☺☺
Yes, we are enjoying working on the Woznot...
Great show. Always learning something new. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks very much!
Thanks for sharing your methods of making the fork crown. As you said, you need to think of each step before making them.
Thanks Tom. Yes, making a fork crown is not super simple. I do hope I am making a good one!
AMAZING craftsmanship spanning half a century! like a time capsule. I'm both humbled and amazed!
Thanks for your kind comment!
Awesome video!! Looking forward to the next episode!!
Thanks very much...
Good stuff!
I still hope to snag one of these some day. Great video and an absolute pleasure as always Paul and Mitch. thank you and cheers !!
These forks were a one off, so it's going to be pretty hard to "snag".. Maybe you are talking about a Gatorblade perhaps? Thanks for watching...
@@paulbrodie yes, or something similar like a Tange or Syncros if Mr.Slack will ever part with one to me. lol. cheers !
Another good one, thanks Paul and Mitch.
Thanks for commenting!
Instead of the screwdriver spreader, slip a bit of sheet metal into the slot and tighten your allen screw from the other side to push the slot open without risking marking anything
Yes that's a good idea. I have done that before. I used a copper penny. Thanks for commenting!
Thank you Paul and Mitch!
Thank you too...
The paintstripping effect is cool, crafting the new old fork is awesome😎
An Allen Millyard video AND a Paul Brodie in the same day.... I am a happy man now. 😁👍
Edit: 420 likes.... Nice. 😂
This part reminds me of the magnificent Pace RC35 fork.
I still think it should be christened NOTWOZNOT😃
Wasn't that an 80's band?
@@SmaulPart-pb5hmthat’s WOZNOTWOZ.
Now the name is getting too long. But thanks for thinking!
Awesome!!!
Good as allways❤
Really interesting watch you reverse engineer a part you fabricated in the past! Go Paul and Mitch, keep moving forward!
Let's wait for Christmas in a little while!
Instead of changing the angle why didn't you just increase the distance between your bore holes for the tubes the exact distance you needed if it was too tight.
I sent you a facebook message over a week ago, not sure if you`ve seen it ......
