This is a cry of utter desperation....in this god forsaken country of Canada getting anything with the word "track" next to it isnt easy. Ive flipped every book at the shop and cannot get a fork for my bike. The only hopfull the Soma one is backordered! DAM!

Does anyone have a 1" pista fork they're lookn to get rid off? Im almost broke from spending 2 months off work to travel and race out west but will pay. It also needs a steer lenth of 8" threaded or 9.5 threadless (to be on the safe side)

Thanks a bunch!

Bike Works in NYC has cheap straight blade road forks for like $57...
check <a href="http://www.bikecult.com/works/parts.html#hs">here</a>..

Look for...
<b>Generic road straight-blade forks $57.00, 1" threaded, chrome-plated chomoly tubing, semi-sloping crown, recessed brake mount for short reach 49mm caliper with 700c wheel, two steerer sizes avaiable: 200mm and 250mm, with 75mm thread and 60mm key slot, no eyelets, tips with wheel retention flange, Taiwan.</b>

I think they have a short rake. A lot of fixed kids in SF use those on old track frames.
