After a long conversation with Mike from Vintage Brake, I feel I can get the performance I am looking for from a set of factory forks. So I have decided to go with a set of 35 mm forks to replace the 34’s my bike currently has.
Of course I will need the triple clamps as well and may be interested in other parts like wheels and brakes. The tubes need to be straight and not pitted, but since I will be rebuilding them with new springs and cartridge emulators, leaky seals are not an issue.
I'm located in northeastern Maryland, just outside of Newark, DE. But am willing to travel a bit or pay for shipping as necessary. I’d also be willing to buy a complete parts bike if the price is right.
Thanks,
Wayne

I have a set of 35mm from a 1977 , pretty good shape but need fork seals , with the triple clamps, I was holding on to them for a spare set for my bobber but could part with them , what are you offering?
I am in Massachusetts.

Got any pictures? What kind of shape are the triples and lowers in? Are the tubes are straight with no rust? Please respond to fzmax at comcast dot net, thanks

yup, straight and no rust , the set is still on the bike and the headlight ears still there so I don't know whats under those, will see if I can get my daughter to come around with her dig camera and send some pics to your email.
