Frame, first gen VDC Chimp with first gen mini free agent forks.  Road bike headset. Doing this with a second option to change bars and forks to the mini vector bars and different forks.  Wanted to grab some before sending it to Dan for coating.

Mini vector bars  - 22mm stem diameter
free agent fork internal - 21mm (these using for first set up with VDC mini bars and mini stem.

so looking for forks just to use with vector bars if possible.

Awesome!  You may have only a few choices unfortunately!  I would try and pick up a set of mini forks with a 22.2 internal diameter which I think the Vector bars will be.  Tange Mity Lites would be a good choice in terms of mainstream forks, not sure on the other mini forks that were about.  I'm pretty sure that Tange options are limited but could be wrong.  Normal Tange TRX, TX, ARX, etc would fit but might not look right on a mini frame (being for full size rims.  Only other thing you might have to be carful with is the length of the steerer on the forks, the VDC might have a short headtube but using a road headset (as you will need to) you might avoid any issues.
