AshlarrMatee Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 alright guys.. had a bit of a mission doing some paint work on my DT getting it ready for when the sun decides to show its face, anyways.. painted my forks and when I went to put my wheel back on just slightly nipped the 2 bolts that hold the spindle and snap! it broke the bracket that the spindle goes through at the bottom of the fork. Does anybody know where I could get some second hand forks from other than ebay? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.. Thankyou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slice Posted March 13, 2014 Share Posted March 13, 2014 Hells teeth how tight did you do it up? Anyway why is EBAY a problem they must have a set on there that you can cannibalise, you only need the one fork leg bottom, see if there's a crashed one out there on Gumtree or similar.

AshlarrMatee Posted March 13, 2014 Author Share Posted March 13, 2014 haha, I could understand it if I went to town on it, but I literally did it finger tight then nipped them with an average allen key.. wasn't tight at all.. I cant understand why it just went like it did.. I've looked for people breaking them and I've been in touch with one guy that has a set on there.. just waiting on a response from him. so thought i'de try other avenues too Thanks for the response.

AshlarrMatee Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 fork issue sorted, ordered a pair off ebay for £160 which i didn;t think was too bad, seals all changed and legs painted up and on the bike. all thats left to do is to build my front brake up now that the calipers painted and then ill be zooming around once more xD Thanks for the advice guys.
