Jack Morton Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 Is it just the top threads which have threaded ?, if so get a longer bolt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LukasMcNeal Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 Of course if you're skint and you want to do an epic bodge you could use a jubilee clip to hold the clamps on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke.P Posted December 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 What monty ones are they?I have zoo! forks atm.Aint gotta clue all i know is there monty, they dont have disc mount. The ZOO! forks good then...? And just a little stupid question here..but when you buy brand new forks, you no the top cap with the bolt, well iv looked at pictures on tarty and there is just a hole nothing to screw into? so how would you go about fitting them?
