DAMMIT!!!

Just stripped my frame down to build up the new Charge Duster..... everything was fine til I went to fit the fork. Bloomin steerer is too damn short!!! Now have to build the Fisher back up and have had to spend another £225 on a set of Rebas to build the Duster. God knows when I'm going to get them...... but needless to say I ain't a happy bunny! That's a 1/4 of the month's wages gone already! Those Reba SL's had better be fluckin good forks!!!!!

sell the old forks? sell the fisher?

yeah, you should get a fair amount for the rebas, Toras hardly ever go for less than £100 on ebay no matter the state or year, so Rebas should fetch a bit.

I am having a similar issue with building up my old frame as a commuter bike with an old fork.

The old (?) forks are Recon SL 2010..... no idea what I'd get for them, but those along with the Fisher frame (unless I build it up as a single speep rigid) should help pay for the Rebas

probably easier + not much more expensive to just buy a new fork

guilliano

Nope, but too late now..... I have ordered the Rebas. Just have to budget big time for the next 6 weeks!

Benj....

Thanks, but ordered new 2010 Reba SL for £225 from Merlin. Need much longer than 195mm steerer anyway. For the time being I have managed to get a cheap FSA stem and a set of narrower than ideal bars to fit. When the new forks arrive I'll swap them over and my bike will be all funky again.

NO worries, i spotted it earlier and thought it might be of use
