This interests me. I don't think it's a scam but I'm hesitant to pull the trigger on these. Also, is the 102mm brake mounting he talks about an industry standard? I know we have the 102 spacing but could the angle be off a bit? Meaning, if the angle is off a bit, by the time you get from hub to the outside of my 320mm brake rotor the caliper could be very misaligned? Is that a possiblity? I was working a trade on ebay for some gold forks and a bit of cash but at this price I might as well get the Ohlins and have the real deal. Also I looked through his feedback and it looks like he might accept as low as $570 for these forks. Cheaper than having stockers sent off!

Whatcha think?

Not a standard, but it's fairly common I believe. Depending on your rotor you could be looking at needing an adapter to get the caliper (and pads) aligned for proper contact on the rotor.

Exactly!

I asked him for measurements from axle center to caliper bolt center. I think those two measurements are sufficient given that we are dealing with a circle.

Thanks.

Do you have the forms I need to file for a bailout with the Feds if it doesn't work out?

Haha, I can't say that I do.

Do it anyway! What's the worst that could happen? cheers
