Title: fork id + S&M 'REDNECK' year id
Post by: magna13 on May 05, 2009, 09:14 PM

hi guys

got a pair of forks here and a S&M 'REDNECK' stem. the forks shout out to me as being S&M H.A.F forks and they both cry out 90's period... but i want some S&M/mid school wizards to tell me all there is to know about them.

thanks zak

If they are s&m forks they'd be called "Ditchforks" it's hard to tell from the pic but do the dropouts go back under the fork leg? On the underside of the stem is it flat or is there a curved bit milled out to clear a gyro?

That's what I was thinking, dropout shape looks wrong for ditch's.
