Been Google-ing away and checking out online stores but I cant find a carbon Bonty Satellite Plus (part no 274335) :(

Spec 1 1/8, 385mm / 45mm for 57mm long drop calipers.

Anyone got a regular use LBS that might have one of these?

Cheers

    why bother. Buy a good fork instead.

    Thanks speedbump, thats really helpful.

    Perhaps you can suggest an alternative? Must be as per the Bonty spec and I forgot to say on the original post it must also have mudguard eyelets.

    Try the dealer locator on www.bontrager.com, you should be able find a store near you that could order one in, or try ringing trek (Bonty's distributors) 01908 282626 for a shop near you, You could also take a look at the ITM 4ever (on wiggle œ45.99 down from œ99) its very similar although with a 43mm offset as opposed to the 45mm of the bonty (doubt you'd notice the difference) or the Acor AFK2452 œ97.95 from Greyville 01543 251328 has a similar spec too, all of these suggestions do have mudguard eyes and clearance for larger tyres
