New Fork for Genesis Equilibrium

macondo01

Hi,

I need to buy a new fork for my Equilbrium (2014). It was carbon and alloy. It needs to be black with eyelets.

Could anyone recommend one to me please? I particularly want to be sure its the right spec as I'm told its easy to buy the wrong one.

Steerer is 1 1/8
Rake is 45 degrees
With eyelets

Thanks,

Andrew

Just found this one. Any good do you think fitwise etc?

Looks perfect to me. You have long drop brakes I'm assuming?

H- - thanks for responding.

Yes long reach brakes.

Is there anything else I need to check before ordering re matching spec please?

I've been looking to get a new fork for my 2016 Equilibrium for a while (original owner cut it a little too short for the fit I want). I found this, but haven't ordered one yet:

I think the smaller logo looks nicer than the Deda. Spec is virtually identical. Condor used to offer it in both curved and straight (curved would more closely match the original look), but they now seem to only offer straight.

Looks like either of those would do the job, but the curved fork would better match the original. You'll need to retrieve the crown race from the old fork and whack it onto the new one. (If you're replacing the headset at the same time as the fork you should get a crown race with the new headset)
You'll also need to cut the steerer down to size

Thanks guys that’s really helpful I’ll be able to buy something now - prob the Condor one with the nicer stickers. Happy riding
