Hi everyone, a little help please. Over the last year or so I have been putting together a Trifeild! Before I start building can anyone help with the forks.

Not sure what I need, ie length which ones I can use for pre 65 trails.

Can I get new yokes made in alumimium!

I was looking at 35 mm forks or can I not use these.

Just did not want to finish this and get the bike rejected my rule.

Again info on the rear shocks would be great

When I start building I will start to post build.

Has anyone done one of these!

All the best

35mm stanchion diameter is the maximum allowed at most pre 65 clubs, this equates to approx 1 3/8" so similar to many British bikes.

Original forks would be perfect but now very hard to find.

29.5" to 30.5" overall fork length measured from centre of spindle to top of leg would be about right for most bikes.

Yokes are made by Alan Whitton, Max Hayes, Gerry Minshall and several others, contact details can be found on the Armac and Yorks Classic websites.
