Checking the forks on my Gollner Bantam as it needs new bushes. Are the Bantam heavy duty the same as the C15 . Can anybody enlighten me please ? The stantion od is as near as damn it is to swearing 31.5mm . Thanks Griff
Not sure. Give Rex Caunt a ring in Barwell Leicester. He is the Bantam Guru and will point you in the right direction or even supply you with the necessary. He has recently moved addresses. His number is 01455 846963
Thanks, I'll give him a call. Just hope he is back and going strong again... Griff
Rex is fine and back in action! Was with him the other week for a few hours!
I think the phone number I gave is out of action. I think he is now using his old number - 01455 848287

There are 2 types of Bantam heavyweight forks - the D14 Sports type and the B175 type.
Also 2 types of C15 forks - the standard type with internal springs and the type used on the competition jobs with external springs.
The lower part of the fork shafts (where the bush works) is 1 1/4 inch (about 31.5 mm) diameter for D14 Sport and C15 Comp type forks.
The B175 and C15 forks are smaller diameter.
Thanks Julian.. It's the 31.5mm bushes I need... Think i've located some this weekend. Griff
If its the long bushes then they are quite common - same as A10.
