Hi
My 20 inch front wheel old Hercules bike emotor conversion has stalled. The current forks need to be 100mm spindle size and keep this dimension for approx. 110 mm along the fork length.

Are retro forks available to help me finish my ebike conversion?
thanks


thanks

Your forks are steel. they should bend out quite easily. Get a block of wood approx the right width (around 110mm) and smash it up the forks with a big mallet. When it's far enough up, leave it in place while you pull in the bottom with a nut and long bolt to make them parallel again. I've fitted several 100mm motors to forks like that.
