Yeah I think I remember seeing something about those forks too. Something about being able to change the steering angle depending on what drop outs you used. Can't remember where I read it though.

What Matt said, deffo Diamond Back (diamond cut outs are a bit of a giveaway)  :daumenhoch:

I have a magazine review somewhere on the dual dropout forks, I'll try and find it  :daumenhoch:

Silver streak, I think I had a set bitd, think they may have been a factory added extra gimic tho like an optional exrta on a car, was weard to change fork rake so easy, was fun till I bosted them, like all the other DB forks I had  :LolLolLolLol:, frame looks Silver Streak with that seatpost angle me thinks.

forks are early DB

there was a letter in the letters page in bmx action bike one time exactly like this thread
except the dropout had been sketched

the reply was along the lines of: the db forks had 2 settings. one for tight nervy handling and one for relaxed street riding
