My REBA 29er fork decided to go into permanent lockout today (friday) on my last ride before the VT50. I am driving from the Cape to VT50 (ascutney, near the intersection of 91 and 89 on the NH border) tomorrow afternoon. race is sunday morning.

LBS will not do it, they just send the forks out for service.

supposedly it's not a big deal, but i have never done.

anyone between here and there with some experience willing to do this with/for me??? i will make it worthwhile for you. someone in an lbs somewhere or something??? or a loaner fork???

shot in the dark here before i mount the rigid fork... for the first time!!!

thanks!!! you can PM me or email me jhyatt aaatttt whoi dot edu i will check it before i leave.

THANKS!

I can't promise anything since I don't work there but you might try giving Jeff at Milford Bicycle a call at (508) 473-7955 in the morning.

hey thanks to all.
it is super cool that so many folks, some of whom I have never even met, offered to help me out.

in the end i found some help to repair my fork right before the race and it worked out fine.
