So I’m going to buy a new bike it’s a 64 plate cpi sm 50 but the forks are bent up pretty badly and I can’t seem to find a pair that’ll fit.







Any help is greatly appreciated




Many thanks Ethan

What diameter are the stanchions (the long metal tubes that will probably be bent)?


Are the sliders OK? (Bottom bits of fork assembly).



Lastly, you will have to check that the steering head bearings are OK.


You may be able to get replacement aftermarket fork tubes if everything else is OK.


Not an overly complex job, but get a manual first. Often available free on't Internet.


Get a copy of Classic Bike or similar magazine. Lots of small ads from specialist engineering companies who can help you.
