    ISO / WTB :26” ~80mm V brake Mtb fork

    My wife broke the crown axle on her 2004 Ellsworth Truth & we’d like to keep the bike operational for visiting guests. Doesn’t make sense to convert it to disc and I’m finding that sourcing a 26 inch fork is quite difficult with rim brakes.

    What do you have laying around your garage?

    I have a green Z2 Marzocchi atom bomb. Would love to give it away but they are worth $150 to $200 on Ebay.

    I might have an old elastomer fork. How much steer tube do you need?

    I only need slightly longer than a 7 inch steering tube to make it work on this bike.

    Thanks

    A bike that fly needs to be fitted with an era appropriate goth- still lots of miles.

    Wouldn’t a 2004 Truth have more like 100-120mm of rear travel?
