Seemed to be a fantastic bargin to me http://www.on-one.co.uk/i/q/FOFOFL150/fox-float-150-rl-suspension-forks so who got the last one and any one suggest a fork for the newly acquired mmmbop. Also after a Headset but not the superstar one as I want one that covers the tube fully.

    I'm in exactly the same situation as you.I saw the forks last week but they had all been snapped up, I also am not to keen on the superstar headset as it doesn't cover the whole headtube.I'm going for rockshox recon 351 air forks and a hope headset for my mmmbop when it arrives on Tuesday(hopefully).it's currently in Belfast according to parcel force tracking

    They were £450...my guess is they sold them at this price then reduced them to get intrest in the site via google...that's me being a pesimist !!

    I heard they bought a load of OEM Fox forks to go on their bikes, decided Rock Shox were better, so flogged the Fox ones cheap to get rid of them quick.

    Yeah I think you cant go wrong with a hope headset, I will keep keep looking for forks and everything else as havnt decided on anything yet, maybe some superstar wheels and Juicy 7 brakes.

    At some point you have to buy something otherwise summer will disappear before you know it.

    You can sit round all year waiting for bargains and miss them all. :(
