Hello everyone,
My original Zoom suspension forks are looking a little worse for wear.
The top chromed area on both forks are suffering from rust and around a drainage hole on the left fork on the lower part of the leg the surface is bubbling and in wet conditions rusty liquid often runs from the hole looking horrible.
I suppose this means the inside area where the spring is located is in a bad way.
Nothing lasts forever and so I will probably need to replace the fork or upgrade it in the near future.
Should I go for another suspension fork?
Maybe a normal steel fork without suspension would be the way to go?
How would I choose a replacement?
I have no idea what size or length I would need, should I entrust my LBS to guide me on what is best?
Being a fairly generic chinese type of Ebike I suppose the fork type is some standard size.
I wouldn't want to spend a fortune but would like to replace the Zoom fork with something of better quality.
Can anyone suggest a budget but decent replacement?
Thanks for any advice given.
Best wishes,
Barry.
