29er forks are not cheap. These are the least expensive that I have seen. http://www.cambriabike.com/shopexd.asp?id=119548 http://www.niagaracycle.com/product_inf ... _id=442025 Next step price-wise is a complete Onyx 1-spd cruiser bike at Walmart. 150 bucks, no brake bosses. :|
it's all about the bikes, man. viewtopic.php?f=6&t=50053
I was going to update my sig line, but I'm not seein' anything worth plagiarizing right now.

From my understanding a 29er is the same as a 700c. I threw away a 700c suspension fork before I knew this, but it was in horrid shape.

Same rim, but some 700c forks do not have a wide or high enough crown to swallow 28" or 29" tires. :|
