Any Aero shaped forks to keep the overall size/profile quite small , JMC like Steve's above or Tange maybe ?? .

Cracking little frames, mine is almost complete, but typical, have built the wheels using hubs I had thinking I wouldn't get hold of the ones I really wanted, then just as I finish the wheels - the hubs I had been hanging out for turn up on the bay!!
Pics should be up soon.
I'd take Steve up on the JMC forks as the MRD's are very rare!

I should have a pair of MRD forks winging thier way to me shortly that I'm thinking of selling. Not too sure what model forks they are until I get them in my hands though (they may be from a Badlander).

The MRD forks are here, but I'm still unsure as to which model they are. I think they're Shredder forks (off a Badlander), but I'll let the MRD experts tell me ???
