Hello,
I'm trying to get a hold of a tandem fork for my cargo bike - I bent the last fork with my 90mm drum brake carrying 80kgs. I'm trying to get a tandem fork as I'm hoping it will survive the frequent heavy stops.


The thing is, the steering tube on my current fork is 1", and I have 700c wheels.Finding a tandem fork that will fit my bike is proving to be pretty tough....

Does anyone know of any forks I might be able to look for that could be used for my bike?
Many thanks,
Max

Thanks, but none of those seem to be tandem forks. Only forks I have managed to on ebay find are the Schwinn tandem blade forks from the US ebay, but these are supposedly very week if they are twisted or hit side on. I suppose may have to settle for one.
 
You could try any traditional frame builder who has a track record for building tandems. They should be able to make anything.

Try Vernon Barker Cycles (probably cheapest and most obliging), Mercian or Bob Jackson.
