Title: gen1 alternative forks??
Post by: dwain dibbly on April 30, 2012, 07:45 PM: are there any other forks that would be a good alternative on a gen1 other that the originals or bottema?
both are virtually impossible to find and when they do appear they are way overpriced.

what could i use that would suit ? ;)
