Good to see, and will look forward to the review as Ive read nothing but good about these units. You and your usual accomplices stay safe and well over on the other side of the island!

I hope to get a Lauf someday. I’ve only heard good things about them.

ey up if you put some hooks in the ceiling above the bench you could hold the handlebars in place with some bungees while you're working on the fork :-)

It's very intriguing looking I have never seen forks like that before if I had to guess they probably run about a grand

Love the Laufs, such a unique look. I'm very interested in how you converted the 135qr hub to a 150mm bolt through. I need to do this to my 29+ front wheel so It fits the forks I bought.

When I change hubs I have to take all the spokes off then respoke it and then make sure the wheel is trued up

Thanks for sharing, great informative video. Spacers are an interesting solution. I'm trying to adapt from 12x142 to 15x150 which is a challenge to find a fix. Anyway, keep up the good work.

What are your plans with attaching bags or bottles to the fork legs? Are you going to tape on tapped blocks like you did before? The angles and surface contours on the fork don't look too favourable for mounting points.

On my last few bikepacking trips I didnt use my fork mounts so I probably won't bother for the time being. But I'm sure there will be a trip in the future that will require extra water/luggage. My taped on mounts on my rigid forks worked extremely well so I'll most likely do something similar. As the Lauf is carbon I'll use a plastic mount like the k-lite or bar-yak instead of my homemade alloy ones.

It comes with a different bearing? I thought the bearing size was determined by the headset cup. I'm worried it won't fit my headset now.

Hey mate how are you finding the Lauf forks , i am about to start a custom fat bike build and will probably go for the Carbonara's like you have for the zero maintenance aspect , cheers dude !

So far they have been great! Perfect for my application. Definitely not ideal for full on mtb trails but great on smaller bumps and corrugated roads. And they are lighter than my rigid fork!

Great video. I ordered same fork. The current from wheel I plan on using is a QR. Do I need any special wheel end caps to accommodate the thru axel set up? Thanks.

So far it has been great. It works really well on small high frequency bumps and it definitely takes the edge off the bigger hits. The only issue I have had is it can sometimes get speed wobbles when the bike is heavily loaded
