Thinking if using the TT fork on a custom build I'm doing... Maybe change MP's fork out for a springer, Brooks, Joker Seat Post, etc. But this thing is a tank!!! I love riding my Felt Cruiser!
Cheers!

I am just getting started in my re-imagined Slater. Girvins do shine up nicely.
More to come.

I am nearly done with this dude and then I will have my carpets professionally cleaned. This was/is a Felt Slater that I had polished along with a set of Noleen forks.
I have never kept this many Felt parts on any bike that I've built. It still has the original rims, handle bars and seat clamp. The chain wheel is a Felt item that was polished too but it comes from one of the many Red Barons I've owned.
It is still unfinished. I have a chain in US flag colors to add and I am giving serious thought to a 5 speed drum or 8 speed disc Sturmey-Archer hub. I have some aluminum grips and fake chrome plastic headlight.

- by Gigmat. Hey gig.... What brand of steering head are u using?
Okay, so here is my latest, for now. I've got a disassembled Red Baron with 2 sets of Girvin forks. I need another aluminum Felt frame so I can put those forks to use.
You have a Deep 6 which I would not change. You have a Felt Tip which I would not change. You have a Hot Wheels which I would not change. You have a Shelby which I would not change. Very nice. Very very nice.
Re:
Nice! More pics please.
Changed pedals since this picture.
Love this build, and looking to do something similar.
Apologies for grave digging this thread, but what handlebar is that? Looks sorta like the stock Felt Chief bar, but it doesn't seem to have the same rise.
You are in luck - sort of. I will send you a Felt fork for the cost of the box and shipping. I don't use them in my builds. I think I have 3 forks on my patio.
If you have a FedEx account let me know. The last fork I sent cost $25 but that was fedex. I think the post office costs less.

Gig, thanks very much but the deep six is slightly different than the standard fork.
The good news is I found one.

Anyone found any pics of the new 2015 range yet in the flesh? I am a phonecall away from paying a deposit on a new (black) red baron with the deep 6 frame but it is peeing me off I cant find proper pictures rather than computer renderings of it!
