Does anyone know when the Volume Fu Manchu fork will be available in the UK? and any word on the cost...?

Balki · 29th June 2009

Sorry, not sure... but freakin awesome band!

dicki · 29th June 2009

Sorry, not sure... but a freakin awesome evil / bad guy !

After a quick google search to determine what the hell Dicki was talking about, I can also add:

Sorry, not sure... but freakin awesome style of moustache!

Hey,
I think they will be around £130. They should be in soon and go out fast!
Let me know if you would like to back order!

They have green one's in stock on the website at the moment. Not sure if it's worth waiting around for more colours to be shipped seeing as they cost half as much as the V3 Frame does. It's either them or identiti park forks but i'm not sure if the steerer length is long enough for the 56 frame. Can't find many others (in white) with a low a2c and a reasonable price. Decisions, dicisions!

dangeruss · 29th July 2009

only thing i could find to fit the 56cm frame steerer was the DMR trailblade 2's, got mine (without pivots) from Wiggle but looks like they're out of stock right now

porter7474 · 29th July 2009

Oh dear! good job i didn't rush into buying the identiti's. Are you running the V3 56 or an earlier model? What's the DMR a2c like, not too high? I wouldn't have even thought about the forks throwing the geo out until someone told me on here.

I heard that Brian Castillo's nose will fetch £13,000 when he dies and that his 7ft tall skinny-as-fuck physique makes it easier for him to tailwhip bunnyhop

Everywhere seems to say they are 440mm a2c maybe i'm looking at the wrong thing.
