I am trying to help source a set of forks for a Dawes Discovery on behalf of an oveseas chum. The forks were damaged during transit overseas.
The measurements are as follows:
Head tube length: 145mm (5 10/16")
Steerer tube length(top of headset crown to end): 220mm (8.66"?)
Steerer tube diameter - outer: 25mm (1")
Steerer tube diameter - inner: 23mm (⅞")
Blade (spindle centre to bottom of headset crown) 420mm
A few hi-res photos can be grabbed here to show braze-on locations etc

Here’s a screenshot of the original model spec found on the web, it gives the wheels and brakes still fitted. He has tried to contact Dawes directly but without luck to date. If anybody can help with a secondhand/replacement set please PM me. Thank you.
