Doug,

I believe the Fuso fork crown was engraved with the Fuso lettering. Moulton forks have very little rake as a rule; usually about 1 3/8" for road bikes. Is the crown engraved? or send me a photo of a crown; I know what most replacement forks look like.

Howdy folks.

Are any of you Dave Moulton Fuso experts? I bought a kind-of-rough one recently. Seller though it may have been in a head-on collision at some point, and looking at it more closely (it just arrived today) the fork paint doesn't quite match the frame paint. Looking at the C-R Moulton page, the fork looks like the ones in the pictures and the front and rear drop-outs are all Columbus. How can I tell if the fork is a Fuso fork?

Thanks and happy holidays,
