    WTB: 29 fork, 100ish mm

    actually might be looking for 2 forks, but looking for 80-120mm travel 29er fork. mid to high end, 1 1/8 (not tapered) and can be either QR or 15mm (wheel is convertiable)

    anyone got a used? or found a deal on new?

    I have manitou tower pro with a 120mm of travel 1 1/8 steer tube, 15mm thru axle and used for a bout 15 days. Steerer is short though 6.5 inches. should fit a small or medium frame though.

    $200 dollars? No idea what it would cost us to get it to canada though.

    If you can take a tapered steerer, I have some options.

    Getting harder to find that "flavor"
    This is where I went, and went with a Reba. http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/m...questid=342252

    Not a great fork, (thought the Dual air was better than the Solo) but the fork is noticeably stiffer than the older Reba it replaced and functions decent for what it is.

    You get spoiled after using a tapered 34mm TA fork in my experience.
    That being said.....
    Price was good, shipping was fast considering.
    At least I'm going somewhere with my skiing in that short time... even if you can't grapple with it or me. adria33 "the Israeli troll"

    I have a 2014 Fox float in great shape - 100mm travel, ctd trail adjust, 15mm thru axle. It's 1 1/8 and has a long steerer, would fit any bike. It is a great singlespeed fork IMO - you can switch to climb mode and have near lockout, then to descend for plush travel on the way down. I used it for my last SS build and had no issues with switching into climb as needed. Not sure what your price range is, but I was thinking $350 plus ship, will include a new seal/wiper kit that can be used on the next service.

    I sold mine that must have been at least 5 years old this fall for $250. Serviced probably at least every year, rode the piss out of it. Tapered steerer is a problem. I had mine on a superfly that I broke, put it on another superfly that was tapered, the adjuster slipped and cracked the inside crown race. I honestly thought I'd just hang it in the garage until a friend said you know...
