fork excess

Look what just turned up, all 160mm (6.3 inches!) of travel and just 5.5lb of German Wotan efficiency. Do I need these forks? Err, no. But do I want them and are they guranteed to make me much, much faster? Ohhh yes. There are a few problems remaining of course, firstly I didn’t realise you need a MINIMUM 203mm disk rotor and my poxy LX 160mm one just doesn’t come close to reaching the caliper, oh and I need to remember to bring the spacers home for my front hub to fit the 20mm Maxle (sorry Charlie/Nick, I would fit a Hartlett but they didn’t come with the option).
