Reproduction Monarch Springers

[Multipass]

I've seen these on Ebay:

Anybody know anything about them? It looks like a nice fork, but I'm a little suspicious. There seems to mutiple listings of the same ad by different sellers in both Canada and the US?

Thank folks

Lumbsten is in the middle of ButtFawk knowherre..
they do look like a really nice fork,and it's a great price!
Much better than those Tiawanesse one's we always see here on the West Coast.

His E Bay feedback looks 100percent.
send him a message through E Bay and ask him if he will sell Canadian and work a deal with him.

I've done a little more digging on this one.

Firebikes is located in Lumsden Sask, I think these forks may be theirs. I'm contacting them & will post what I find out.

The fork is marketed by Crossbowusa, their main product is power skateboards. Should have one in my hands in the next few days.

Has anyone seen any feedback on these forks yet? I'd really like to see some pictures of the top part of the fork from a side angle.

I purchased one from Crossbowusa, I talked to him on the phone, I even went to his shop to take a look and there was boxs of rocker arms fork legs springs and all the parts!! brand new!! he has a couple guys just puting springers together! , so I picked one up and took a good look.......my jaw still hurts from the ear to ear GRIN! These PUPPIES ARE the goods, he did his research they are heavy, correct replicas [as far as I know][ OK I'm not RESTO MAN..on factory correctness]. He is thinking about reproducing the monark frame too. I'll post pics later....YES I plan on purchasing more for future builds and to pack Rat away..... :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

idea of cost on these.

Thanks, Vroom

Hi all, I just joined up after seeing some of you over on chopperbicycle.net. I just wanted to add my two cents regarding these forks. Sam at Firebikes is a trusted longtime member of the CBN, Kustom Kruiser, and Bike Rod and Kustom communities, and though I haven't checked out these units, I trust him implicitly in regard to what he offers up for sale, he has been building custom frames for years, and had been a trusted supplier of custom components almost as long, but more importantly he is one of us- he cares about supplying quality stuff for as fair a price as he can. And he's welded more frames and built more bikes that a lot of us will ever see. I am certain that Sam will be more than happy to accept returns for products that he sells that anyone finds unacceptable( assuming it hasn't been damaged or missused...). I would not hesitate to buy from him, if I wanted the product and had money to buy it, and if he is being supplied by the other fellow with these forks for sale on ebay, I expect that both of them have a very quality product...(by the way- it isn't EXACTLY the same thing over there, but I encourage y'all to member-up on CBN, theres a lot of catalogued info over there and just about anything you can think of in relation to bikes someone will know it- its a real friendly bunch - if you can put up with Marty givin' ya a hard time!...) thanks fer yer time!...
