Title: Rigid fork for my 29er longer than 450mm
Post by: Jfive on July 18, 2025, 03:40:43 PM

So I recently got this Nanlio fork which seems to be insane value.

However and this is my mistake of course is that the distance between quick release skewer and where the split ring sits is only 450mm and as I had to learn the hard way is much shorter than all of my bikes with suspension fork. This distance however is quite common and I have a hard time finding a fork on Ali that is considerably longer.

I don't care too much whether it is carbon or alloy..under 100 bucks would be nice though. I think it's needless to say but it should be compatible to disc breaks.

Anyone has any idea and ideally already experience with it?

Cheers!

Hi,

i had a Force 475 Alloy Fork in the past - it´s the same as Mosso M5: https://de.aliexpress.com/item/1005004015275356.html

Should fit your needs - 475mm A-C, below 100 bucks, alloy, and was sturdy enough to last getting tortured by me (1,87cm tall, 95kg) - and my Force branded one was the straight steerer version aswell!
