Odyssey Forks

[Radical Mick]

I'm looking to get a pair of Odyssey forks to go with my 2001/2 T1 Barcode frame.

Looking at the ones for sale on e-bay I have noticed that the hole in the top cap seems off centre, 

Is this something special to Odyssey forks only?

I have brought an FSA pig headset, is it compatible with Odyssey forks or must I use the Odyssey top-cap system?

Any help/suggestions appreciated

If they use the same topcap as my Director forks they are internally threaded rather than using a star washer thingy. The offset hole you mention is actually where you tighten the cap up with an 8mm Allen key

That makes sense, thanks for that. 

Think I should probably be able to use the Headset I have and leave the star washer and top cap from the FSA headset out.

  Does your T1 have regular headset cups? Odyssey forks have a built-in crown race that is designed to fit with headsets with a 45 degree lower bearing....

The offset hole also allows for routing a cable through for a front brake but still be able to tighten it up

I've got a pair of Redline 1 1/8" with AD lugs 14mm forks you can have fella from 2002 that'd fit your standard headset dealio. Don't want owt for em, and I'm conveniently located in Bury

Thanks!

Was going to try and get a pair without AD lugs but I'm not going to turn down a free pair of forks, and the AD lugs are probably more
in line with most bikes of that age. The front wheel I have got has 10mm axles is this a problem with 14mm forks. I have read about
adaptors.

Going to send the frame and fork to SuperbikeDan for powder coating.

Will PM you with my contact details.

I think the early ones don't have the built in crown race, but will be quite hard to find, I know Steve Wilson had a pair

If you're going to powder them then why not cut the lugs off amd grind them flush before Dan works his magic

Good idea, hadn't thought of that. Thanks
