Hi from the UK, glad to be part of this get together.
Is there a technical section on here?
I have some as new fork sliders from a new Project Rushmore Glide, they came from a guy who fitted chrome ones instead, I need some fork tubes to suit, does anybody know if the earlier 49mm tubes will fit?
I have asked a dealer who is selling the earlier type

and he says no they wont fit but when I asked what the difference was he did not reply so I was wondering if he didn't know and was playing it safe.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks Birley

Thanks for your reply TomA
I want to use the forks on a custom build, I can make or adapt some trees to suit the tubes and frame but I don't want to buy some tubes and them not fit the sliders where they attach to the dampers!
