Anyone got a spare pair of forks for sale?

does anyone have a spare pair of one inch threaded forks, preferably uncut. i can pay cash, but don't really want to pay to much, so make me an offer first, thanks.

Don't suppose you have a rocket tool (is that the correct name?) for removing 1" headsets that I could rent for beer?

no, but i have other ways of getting it out, and a diy rocket is easy to make you just need a slightly less then 1 inch die piece of pipe and a hack saw.

How would one combine the pipe and hacksaw to create this tool?

hack saw a + across one open end of the pipe, saw about 1/2 to 3/4th the way down, then bend the four bits out wards a bit, file all the rough parts smooth if ya can be asked, or just wear gloves when handling it.

use as you would a rocket

a flat head screwdriver and a hammer works well if your careful.

True, a rocket tool makes life very easy though!

Pull through>pings into place>hit with hammer>job done.

Thanks for the advice Chris.
