Hi,

does the STW hive mind have any ideas?

Thanks Boris, that's the fork that has failed on my bike. Want an upgrade really.

Any specific models from janitor and marzocchi? I can't find anything except suntour...

Good luck.... not a chance new I don't think.

Your best bet is to investigate either new end caps for your front wheel or a new front wheel, there's a few relic steerers out there new but I can't see anything that is 15mm. Manitou markhour on crc says qr but has a picture of a 15mm axle.

Second hand will be loads easier, pick up a good set of straight steerer 15mm 120mm Rebas without to much bother. Remember dual air Reba are easily changed to 120 from 80/100 as long as they are a certain model, and the newer solo air ones just need an air spring change so you've just got to find 29 and 15mm really.

Splashdown are they 29er? How much? Can they be converted to 120mm so the geo is correct?
