If you put the current model and specification, some may be able to suggest a replacement.0

If this is your bike:

Then you should have something like SR Suntour SF11 forks.
26" wheels, looks like straight steerer and maybe 90mm travel, although this review suggests 80mm.

These are a very low level, coil sprung option that weigh over 2kgs.

They aren't great but they have a lock out option.
If you just want to commute on it, rigid forks are probably the way to go. These are just an example:

Rockshox RS9641000 30 Silver Suspension Fork, Black, 26-Inch https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B06XCS5TB5/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_4HJbEb1KRQ2RV
Would they work.

If your bike is as linked to above, yes.Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0
