Hi Milos.  Check out this website

http://www.cyberus.ca/~will/Gervin.htm

It says that you can swap the crosslink legs for vector legs and vice-versa... if you have the right year crosslink.  I am going to try that myself to see if it works.

It seems that the market value on ebay for a non-ODS vector 2 fork is about $65 USD.  That may be a cheap oprion for you.

Thank you Trevor. However It looked like bended It was not. After the crash the top part which is mounted to the head tube probably twisted causing light twist in link bearings and at the bottom of the fork it was about 1cm. I will check the spare part web anyway!

Hi Milos,
I have a spare set of crosslinks with smart shock (non- working) if you want them I will send them to you for free!  (if you pay the postage).

Where do you live?

Nigel.
