Would a Rockshock xc 30 fit.

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

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.

Thank you billycool.
