jojotut Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 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!

trialsrfun Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 (edited) 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.

furse Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 Gerry has made me some for my trifield, nice quality and 2 cups to hold roller bearings. I'm using 35mm marzochi forks in Norton road holders legs. Threse are allowed in Scotland pre65 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
