Hi guys, anybody know who still straightens fork stanchions? I've got a bent one on my little Honda XL, I've been looking for a year for a decent replacement and they never come up, nor can I find a new one. Back in the day we never replaced them, I worked in the local bike dealers and unless they were kinked they were always put in the press and straightened.
Thanks, Phil

Philpots in Luton did mine and polished it while I waited. Top service and cheap too.

Thanks, all the reports I heard from Philpotts were slow. maybe worth a try, its not that bent but needs sorting.
Where is ABE Steve? I could mail it to somebody.

Phil Philpotts have a backlog I think for posted items. If you turn up and just want something straightened, they do it there and then. I was held up on a rebuild by an ebay stanchion that had a dog leg in it. It was sold as straight FFS. It only held me up for a few hours thanks to philpots. |
