ORIGINAL LOWRIDER 26" Bent 1" Gold Suspension Fork Cage Wing Square

Model / Type: Lowrider “bent” springer fork with cage/wing support bars

Wheel Size: 26"

Color / Finish: Gold (show finish; steel underneath)

Brand: Original Lowrider 

Steerer

• Type: 1" threaded

• Outer diameter (OD): 25.4 mm (1.000") — standard 1" headset

• Quill/stem inner diameter (ID): 22.2 mm (0.874") — fits 22.2 mm quill stems

• Total steerer length: 195 mm (7.68")

• Threaded length: 109 mm (4.29")

• Thread spec (typical for this fork): 1" x 24 TPI (BSC/ISO)

• Crown race seat (typical for Taiwanese lowrider forks): ≈27.0 mm (JIS). Some headsets use 26.4 mm (ISO). Verify your crown race before pressing.

Axle / Dropouts

• Axle slot size: 3/8" (9.53 mm)

• Front hub spacing (typical): 100 mm OLN standard for cruisers/lowriders

Fork Legs / Geometry

• Style: “Bent” lowrider legs with spring crown — stretched look

• Offset/Rake (typical for this pattern): approx 45–60 mm (varies slightly by batch)

• Axle-to-crown (effective, typical on 26" springers): approx 365–385 mm measured to springer plate (visual stance is “long/low”). Measure your exact unit if you need precision for geometry.

Suspension Crown

• Spring-suspended top crown with coil spring and rocker hardware; primarily for style/comfort (show springer, not a performance fork)

Decorative Support Bars

• Style: Bird-Cage Wing Square Twisted (show bars / struts)

• Length: 22-1/4" (22.25" = 565.15 mm tip-to-tip)

• Material: Steel, gold finish to match fork

Material (fork + hardware): Steel (crown, legs, struts, hardware)

Tire / Fender Clearance (typical)

• Fits 26 x 1.75 – 26 x 2.125 tires comfortably on most cruiser rims. Very balloon tires may be tight under the bent arch—check before riding.

• Fender mounting is common on these: expect a single center fender hole under the spring perch or on the lower brace, plus strut mounting via the twisted bars. Verify hole positions on your exact fork.

Brake Compatibility

• No disc mount. No cantilever/V-brake posts.

• Use coaster brake rear wheel or front caliper brake via springer brake plate (the flat add-on bracket that spans the rockers). These plates are usually sold separately and require a long-reach caliper for 26".

Finish Notes

• Gold is a decorative coating over steel (varies by batch: plating, anodic coating, or high-polish gold tone). Expect normal small finish variations at welds/edges.

Crown hardware and springer linkages as pictured

Headset, stem, brake plate, axle nuts, and fender hardware are NOT included.

Frame standard: 1" threaded head tube.

Headset: Choose a 1" x 24 TPI threaded headset that matches your crown race seat (most of these forks are JIS 27.0 mm). If your headset race is ISO 26.4 mm, swap to a 27.0 mm race or choose an ISO-seat fork.

Head tube length: You get 109 mm of threads. Your head tube + headset stack height must be ≤ 109 mm to fully engage the locknut. Typical threaded headset stack is 35–45 mm, so this fork comfortably fits many 60–70 mm head tubes; taller head tubes can still fit because some unthreaded steerer remains below the threads—measure your frame:

• Required threaded engagement ≈ head-tube length + headset stack height + locknut thickness (leave a few mm of safety thread above the locknut).

Stem: 22.2 mm quill with 25.4 mm (1") handlebar clamp is the common cruiser combo.

Wheel: 26" front wheel with 3/8" axle and 100 mm spacing.

Brake: If you want a front rim brake, add a springer brake plate + long-reach caliper; otherwise run a rear coaster only.
