As Dane and I assembled his HS50 tonight we found the upper threads of the fork to be stripped. : ( What bad luck with forks on this last batch of bikes. 2 out of 3 bikes need new forks! I think this one is salvageable, however. I think we will cut the head tube off the maxi forks and then cut the head tube off the HS50 forks and weld the maxi tube in at the correct length. A red tube, but no one can see it. Just for fun, here is a picture of Dane's Pinto. I prefer Swingers myself.
