Wow very cool would of loved to of seen them mounted to your cannondale. I'm guessing you don't have any pics of them on your bike? Thanks for extra info, will add this to my ever growing research folder on these forks, thanks again for help with this 🙌 🙌 🙌

Hi @gtturbo thanks for replying, ahhh wow, thats interesting so you had to put the decals on yourself? I'm guessing you can't remember the year you bought your 1st gen's? 1991? i just found this post of another forum about the models that weren't included in the recall and more info on why...

Hey guys, hope your all well. Finally managed to get hold of a Scott Unishock fork. I was desperately trying to find the very first gen with big "unishock" decal version from 1991 that weren't in the recall, but couldn't seem to find one in 1 1/8" size that i need. So ended up with a world...

Hi all, I’m after a pair of Scott Unishock forks preferably a pair from 1991 (none recall model) in 1 1/8 size steerer. I don't care about the cosmetic condition, it would be amazing if they functioned, but if there stuck I’m still interested. Please let me know if anyone has any they want...

@FluffyChicken you are the greatest, your knowledge is unreal. Thanks so much for replying. I see quite a few white ones with the green Scott logo down each side. Do you know when they released though’s?

Ps i know there's a few for sale on ebay, i have contacted the owners and asked for manufacture year & if these arre included in the recall version etc but not really getting any replies.

Hi guys, Been re-searching this now for a few weeks, and got about 700 screen grabs stored up of Scott Unishock forks. I know this is probably an impossible find. But i was after a 1991 (none recall model) scott unishock fork 1 1/8. I don't care about the cosmetic condition, it would be...

Hi all, Sorry for only replying now. I saw some of your replies coming in, but had the kids all w-end, so just could not get enough time to reply. Thanks for everyone's input, this site is by far the best on the internet. Really interesting replies. And thanks for advice from the people with...

Hi guys thanks for quick reply by you all. Yes I read a whole forum about trainer bikes & how bad sweat can be. Absolutely gutted been after this particular bike for so long it’s a 1996 m900. So you don’t even think it’s worth sanding off all the corrosion (there is literally only about 4 tiny...

Hi guys, just picked a 1996 Cannondale frame. The paint is in 90% good shape. But there is sadly quite a bit of bubbling in certain areas on the frame. Please see images attached. I've tried to read up as much as poss before coming on here about the best thing to do with this, but only...

Thanks so much @FluffyChicken for super fast response, yes that all makes complete sense. Maybe i'll try and find a NOS stock YST or shimano similar (although these look super expensive) i'll poss keep an eye on ebay, as it would be awesome to learn the skill of fitting one of these, but i would...

Hi all, I'm back again already. I through i might quickly order new bearings and possibly new cages (although i prob don't need the cages) if i can source them. But i thought its prob best to ask your guys advice before i go blowing money when you all might say just replace. Its says on line...

Hi all, sorry for the delay in replying. Thanks so much for all the awesome tips. Reading through them all i'm like "oh my god" that makes perfect sense about following the thread etc with the lock ring, why didn't i think of that!!!!! And thanks for the alpine stars BSA info & for the...

Hi @bikeworkshop thanks so much for replying and offering advice. I would have never thought of that in a million years and if i can do a good enough job, i don't think anyone would be able to tell and i might be able to re-use this original BB if i can clean up the bearing enough etc. Just one...

Hi guys, Hope your all well. I started riding my 34 year old alpine stars Al-Mega XT (as its just been sitting there waiting to be restored for so long and so couldn't resist any longer. I noticed the crank has started to move around more and more on each ride and i've worked out its the...
