hi
ive been a member for a while now and but this is my first post so please be gentle.
I Recently bought some y2k junior t’s (20mm axle) off eBay which are in great nic, fitted them but when I put the wheel in (big un) the wheel spacing is wrong it measures 110mm which corresponds with the service guide I have found (after I bought them) but can’t find any info on the spacing or what hub might fit. Any body got any ideas??
Thanks
Tim
I had some 03 pogo sticks I think, worked fine with a 20mm Hope Pro II but a set of original fox 36's outperformed them in every single way!!
Thanks for the input, however I was looking for something from the late 90’s 20mm axle and double crown which is I think what I got without spending 2 or 3 times as much on monsters or boxxers of the same vintage.
Qr20 is the 110mm standard. It's probably going to be easier to machine new end caps for the big in at this stage.
03 jnr TS were when they took all the damping out so not surprised yours were shite Mike but entirely different fork to the ops

The flex was a bigger issue, they were a very short fork too even by mid 00's standards
Anyway I seem to have stumbled into a retrobike thread so backs away quickly 😉
@ trail_rat that’s what I was thinking but I guss it cannot hurt to put a wanted post up and I might just ping hope an email to see what they say.
I have put them on a 98 heckler which I have run 97 z1’s and 02 shivers on so haven’t got much to compare it to but they look good. The reason I chose that bike in the first place was because mbuk ran them as team bikes back in late 90’s I just couldn’t stretch to a duel crown fork at the time.
I ran a 98 heckler as an xc race bike for endurance events. Air shock full xtr and sid races.
Cannot imagine for the life of me why you'd put any incarnation of shivers on it.
I'd have just left the 97z1s on it.
At the time I was dabbling in down hill but could not afford a new rig, frame came with coil shock anyway and a mate had the shivers (sc) spare. Like I said mbuk ran them with boxxers (I think) in the late 90’s. That’s why I like the heckler it’s very versatile. Although not a particularly stiff rear end.
the z1’s are still on my original 97 (non disc) frame but I bought a 98 frame with disc mount last year and I’m trying to build them both up sort of retro
