Goshen Mopeds from goshen, IN United States
These forks are pretty special as they are beefier versions of the forks that were only used on one model of us released mopeds, the standard red free spirit. Like the standard red free spirit, there is no speedo mount, something unique to that model as well as the speedo was in the headlight. You CAN use a maxi type 1 fender with these but you'll need to mount the fender bracket on the inside, so space them accordingly. You will also have to tap them as they come untapped.
Free spirit deluxe uses magnum II forks Rigid free spirits use rigid forks Magnum xk use magnum forks Pintos use maxi sport forks Swingers use maxi type 1 forks Rigid Swingers use rigid forks
Now you know your kromags.

solid

these are solid, but a couple things I noticed :
Height seems to be the same as my original maxi forks, maybe a tiny bit taller... there is a half inch gap on the top fork nut that i could have made up for by putting a spacer under the bottom bearing race... youll understand when u get them, cause u should...
Here's my bigger issue tho : no mounting bracket for disc brake? Looks like the full size EBR forks have it, but these don't. sadness... maybe weld time? I really want disc brake awesomeness, any input from Benji and crew would be great !
Otherwise these are smooth enough that all the cheese stays on top of my tacos when i'm rippin' at at about 50...

installed on a puch without a problem

reused my old bearings, fit without a problem on my puch swinger. the brake/brace tabs aren't parallel, which caused some problems with my fork brace. a vice and hammer sorted that out. had to add a few washers to my axle, wider than stock forks. fits a 17x2.75 gazelle and it looks SICK

The one I recently got was the older, long version (even though the description says it's shorter) and I didn't realize it until installing it on my Newport. Now I've got a Newport with full-on chopper steez. Had to use a Magnum kickstand to get the rear wheel off the ground but I kinda dig it, so it's all good.
