Hi!
I'm looking for a boost rigid fork that has clearance for 29x2.8 tyres, and a slightly longer axle to crown than the usual ~480mm. Something in the 495-500mm range would be perfect.
I found this style of fork on eBay and Ali:
The problem is, some are listed by no feedback sellers for suspiciously cheap, and some are listed by I guess reputable sellers but in the $170-200 range which is dangerously close or over the limit where I would need to pay MASSIVE import taxes. I need to stay under $170 (that includes shipping but it's usually free) but the cheaper the better. I don't want to stay just a hair under the limit in case they convert the currencies somewhat differently and I get screwed over because i'm over the limit by a cent or something...
It seems like this style of fork is somewhat newer? The market is full of Niner RDO clones that cost around a 100 bucks.
I'm just not sure where to look but i'm new to Chiner stuff, could you guys recommend some good brands that are maybe not on Ali or eBay?
