Evening Folks,

I uncovered some more things I didn't know I had and will probably never use! Both of these forks are NEW (at least they certainly look new) and have 26.4mm crowns and ~45mm of rake. I can have pictures tomorrow (if the weather cooperates?????).

1) TANGE - Fully chromed - I'm guessing late 70's early '80's? Steerer length is 147mm with about 34mm of threads. It looks like a Microfusion crown (only I know it's not) and has the "Cinelli Lookalike" tabs on the inside of the legs. Tange dropouts (did you expect Campagnolo?). $30.00 (shipped).

2) ROSSIN - 1/2 chrome - I guess late '80's on this one? - 200mm steerer w/53mm of threads - "R" engraved on top of semi-sloping fork crown - Campagnolo dropouts - the "other half" of the fork is white with black "drippings" - I bought this fork about 12-13 years ago as I had a Ciocc which needed a fork and I was going to send frame and fork to Franklin for new paint. Sold the Ciocc w/o fork and forgot about this fork!! Reference point - this fork weighs about 2/3 of the Tange fork even though it has more than 50mm of steerer! $75.00 (shipped)
