So I am in the process of changing my rigid forks on my mountain bike to suspension and I look over at my black sheep Kite Trike. Hmmm..... Those forks look the same size as a bikes......I wonder....
It could not be a real full size fork set up due to the wheel size but if I was to take a set of cheezy suspension forks off of a kids [not my kids- my neighbors!] bike would they fit?
I did some quick measurements and it looks like it would work.

Anyone attempt this move yet?

I did this with a 26" wheel on my first buggy....lol, it sucked, but it had suspension, I think you could do it no problem. You may need to mod the fork a bit, but it should fit a barrow tire, I used a front fork from a TINY bike, like 12" wheels for my front fork, I just had to blow out the fork a bit.

howbout a pocketbike fork? cheap and already made for a nice wide wheel

Thats a thought, I really like the suspension popeye put on his last buggy, maybe give that a shot.

I like the pocketbike fork! I will have to measure to see if it will work! Keep the suggestions coming.

Hmmm interesting thought did you look at the carkeek leading link ? It might be simpler maybe :puzzled: not sure on that... Popeye set up one on his new buggy. here is a link for that...

I checked out some pocketbike forks today most of them max out at a 4in spread. They may work if you plan on keeping barrow wheels. But.............moped forks on the other hand...............
