Their section looks different, and I imagine it took you awhile to perfect the fork on your frames: they absorb road shock and steer sweetly. <BR/>Don't know your secret but it worked.VintageSpinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01046711549017869629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18899086.post-2749816248680788122007-12-07T13:26:00.000-05:002007-12-07T13:26:00.000-05:00I'm in agreement with the rest.

Particularly from the point of view of a British clubman in the 1950s and later as a builder in the UK and the US. I'm sure there were a lot of prejudices, myths and misconceptions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18899086.post-33004292264363244682007-12-07T09:22:00.000-05:002007-12-07T09:22:00.000-05:00No difference structurally between the aero and lu...No difference structurally between the aero and lugged style crown. The aero was more work (filing.) to make it so you couldn’t see the join. I agree on the aerodynamic aspect it is style rather than function.<BR/><BR/>Jack, <BR/>No difference either structurally or in quality between Columbus and Reynolds.

I have a similar fork on my old French bike and while it looks extremely good, it seems to be aerodynamically useless, since the fork crown sits in the turbulence created by the front brake.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
