nc30 fork replacement

Post by petecbrdude »

Hi everyone. I'm new here, & I would be very grateful for some advice. Here goes:
My Mrs has a '92 "J" NC30. The forks are heavily pitted / rusting above the seal travel area. Replacements are either too expensive or bent, leaky, etc. Can they be replaced by forks from other bikes, without having to change yokes, calipers, wheels/discs etc.
Thanks in advance, Pete.

Hi Pete,
Replacement 30 fork come up on here every now and then, Smev might even have a set up for grabs now!
Easy to swap over if you're replacing like for like.

Good luck.

Hi Matt, I would like to swop like for like, (easiest), my local breakers haven't any. Keep looking on ebay but they're usually without the top adjusters, or in need of repair. I'll have to keep looking n' searching. Thanks for your reply by the way. Best wishes, Pete.

HI Pete,

Where are you based? There are a few guys on here that break NC30s and some of us also have an addiction to hoarding bits.. I have a spare set of forks in my garage in fact, but they are for my next build ;)

Stick a post in the "for sale and wanted" section.

You have multiple options...in fact, I'll just dig out one post I know exists from one of our reputable sellers

Here you go - http://www.400greybike.info/newforum/vi ... rks#p85373" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Take your pic..how would you like them? 8-) :up: :grin:
