orange clockwork

nom de plum

I'm mainly stick to the roads and know next to nothing about MTB!
I've just powder coated my old orange and done it up a bit. However I think I might have wasted 30 quid on some decathlon 1inch steerer folks (see flickr below) which I think are rubbish. Can anyone recommend something not too expensive
which will will work with this bike...I
thanx

Steve, i see not pics of the bike with the decathalon forks? just with some sus forks on it?

what are the sus forks and what was the travel?

Hi Nicklouse
They are branded B'twin and it says rockrider on the folks. They are 70mm travel and the blurb reads" spring and elastomer suspension fork" there is no other description

ok so we are looking for a relatively inexpensive rigid fork to replace that fork? and must have a 1" steerer.

Mmmm

Right... your option are Pace £££ magura??? or Marzocchi. all can provide 85mm sus forks with 1" steerers.

I would go for a Marz. MX something but it will be to order. Get in contact with you LBS.

The forks you bought are a rebadged Spinner Grind.
