Getting another spesh fat boy next week but this ones a hemi comp. Its identical to this http://bmxmuseum.com/bikes/specialized/19189 but its just the frame. Obviously no point hoping to get hold of some original ones so looking for a few pointers/ideas on which route to go. The ones on the bike i linked above are not original and i dont like em at all, i want a nice chunky set to go with the frame.
cheers for reading

Really, one type of fork set the standard for the 90s- s&m pitch forks. Exposure legs were a sort of copy. I think as its a race frame, how about 'answer' race forks- I think thats what the company name was.

I had Sunn forks on mine.You can still get`em-BMX City and Groove both had them a while back real cheap.Look like the bastard son of Bottemas and Landing Gears. :daumenhoch:

Will have a look cheers, have always like landing gears.
With regards to the answer ones, that was what i had in mind to start. Had a look at the carbon ones and they are weight restricted to just under a ten stone rider so dont think iim gonna have any joy with them lol
-
I would avoid carbon anything myself - it just shaters.
-
Even if they didnt have that problem their maximum weight of rider using the fork is not far off half my weight.
I really do love the look of them though
