Or got pix of them on a set of forks?
Can't see any on Crankskins website. I'm considering getting some for a set of blue SIDs I have, that don't really match the colour scheme of the bike I'm building. Would be cheaper than getting the lowers resprayed or buying new forks. I know they're not going to cover the whole fork lower, but wanted an idea of what they looked like before ordering.

IIRC, those would be the Crankskins, not the Forkskins. It's the ones for the forks I'm interested in (already got and am extremely impressed with the Crank version)0

They do what they say on the tin. Tbh though, not sure they are any better than just sticking some helitape around the forks,0

I'm more looking for a colour change than protection.0 -
Are there any UK distributors for Cranksikns (nothing found on Google) or did everyone get them direct from the states ?0

Wow there's some tarts on here. My bike's for riding not looking at, I couldn't care less if it looked like a binch of cobbled together parts.0

Ordered mine late Wednesday evening, arrived this morning.
6 days to Cornwall from the States (inc bank holiday weekend), that's better service than I've received from some UK companies0
