Mongoose beast

[Jns834]

I want to put a springer fork on the front of my beast. Does anyone know of one?

Unless you go to a different wheel in the front (Skinnier) you'll have to either make one or modify one. There are a few (Like 2) suspension forks but they are BIG $$$

Check out Blown240's Beast here for some ideas.

I've seen it done. What they did was take a regular Chinese Schwinn springer knock off, and put longer bolts through there with spacers on each side, making it wider.

That will work but you'll also have to make a wider crown? spring plate? thing to achieve the right look. Or space it way out with washers.

They spaced it out with tubing that barely slipped over the bolt, and it didn't look bad at all.

Cool, got any pictures?

Cool , thanks for the help and suggestions . I haven't seen one with a springer and figured I'd have to fab something.

There you go. David is that guy's name, and it's cool. He just won "best stretch" with that at the Stockton show.
