Knock-Through Spindle For Bantam Hub

Recommended Posts

Hi,

I'm building a bantam.

I have knackered old C15 forks, and thinking of swopping for some off an early Jap trail bike, MZ, or TY175.

But how do people switch over to a knock-through spindle.

I don't have access to a lathe, or friend with a lathe.

In addition to the above, are there any forks that are an easy fit (I'm also keen to avoid too much re-work in terms of the length of the steering head which seems quite short on a Bantam).

Some japanese bikes have the 33mm stantions which require no mods to the yolks although will need fitting to your fork legs.

As well as Alan, Paul Jackson is a very good trails bike engineer, depends where you live?
