What forks are these. I'm sure someone on here made a set a while back??

[Discostu]

Hi guys, I was recently at a vw show with the coolflo guys doing the show and shine, a lad walked up with his bike and asked some questions about it, pretty much everyone that has a bmx at these events asks us questions on what they have.

Now this lad had a set of forks on his bike with strange drop outs. I'm sure someone on here was after a set but couldn't find any for love or money. They ended up getting one of the rad metal gurus to fabricate the strange drop outs onto a different set of forks.

Anyway here are some pics.

cheers Phil... been doubting myself for the last 31 years that I saw a set of these forks on a Curtis.. just thought I was being a spaz.!

[Discostu]

So what did the mt racing forks look like?

Were the drop outs similar? I remembered a thread.
Any links about.

Could be wrong but have seen something similar on some french bikes, MBK/motobecane perhaps?

[Discostu]

Mm that motobecane has similar forks.

I did grab the lads phone number as he is interested in getting rid of them in favour of some gt ones to match his frame. 

Get some Curtis pics up for reference. 

[sawzall]

here's a pic of the ones i have,also have the frame set to go with them

[Discostu]

Well Phil they certainly look the ticket. Are they fairly rare then?
Not as though it matters to me. 

If your interested Steve I can give you the guys number. I haven't spoke to him since I met him at the grill and chill a month or so ago.
