Vintage Style Forks Special

No matter if the hunt goes for a stock replacement fork for a classic Knucklehead, a long Springer fork for a Panhead chopper or a retro style fork for Flathead Bobbers - at W&W the respective owner can find them all. One of the world’s largest collections of its kind covers everything what the V-Twin enthusiast could ask for: standard and extra-long Springer forks, VL-style Custom forks, Indian style leaf spring forks - in Würzburg/Germany there is no gap. The latter two fork types are W&W’s proprietary designs, manufactured in Europe. Of course, extensive spares supply, as well as uncompromising, TUV-approved quality are included with each fork.

Cannonball Leaf Spring Forks
Cannonball Leaf Spring Forks
The retro custom bike builder scene sometimes likes to experiment with parts of different brands on the same bike project. For example Indian parts are installed on Harleys and vice versa, with often astonishing results. Among the most positive mergings was the combination of an Indian leaf-spring fork with an H-D Big Twin rigid frame. This type of fork was used by the Wigwam in the 1910 to 1945 period which proves that this was a very successful suspension principle with excellent driving chracteristics.
Of course, the stock item doesn't fit a Harley frame without major alterations, so W&W decided to produce its own version which allows such an installation without many difficulties. But, of course, not another quick and dirty copy with ugly welding seams and wrong rocker geometry. The Cannonball fork is a professionaly made part with a design as close as possible to its original pattern, manufactured by expert craftsmen in Italy. The first complete prototype was rigorously tested during W&W’s winter tour in Northern Canada and after that sent to the German technical authorities for a certificate of stability (included). Both tests were passed without any flaws. After that production started.
All test rides were performed with a rigid frame, 30° neck chassis, with which both handling and braking characteristics proved well balanced and stable.
The Cannonball leaf spring fork features a fork stem with two Ø1” bearing seats for the use of 1949-up Timken bearings and leg tops to accept the 36-up Springer handlebars (inline). A horizontal bracket to mount the headlamp is also there. The fork is wide enough to accept disc brake or drum brake systems. Rockers are drilled for 17 mm axles but can be enlarged to 19 mm. Neither axle, spacers nor brake are included and must be purchased or fabricated separately. Each fork is shipped preassembled to insure proper function and fitment, however, all components are bare and require painting or plating.

Cannonball Flanders Style Dog Bone Risers
Cannonball Flanders Style Dog Bone Risers
Most period Bobbers and many stock bikes had them: Flanders handlebars with matched risers and fork clamps. When they were introduced in the 1940’s the cool look and the resulting superb riding position made them an instant success. These risers (product design by Mark van der Kwaak / dbbp) are great reproductions of the legendary originals and show the manufacturer’s care and attention to details, underlined by the hex head clamping bolts. The offset clamps are sandwiched between Delrin rings to absorb vibration and still firmly hold the handlebars.

Throttle Addiction Stelling & Hellings Risers
Throttle Addiction Stelling & Hellings Risers
Mack Hellings was a midget car driver from the USA, and his oversized handlebar moustache was his unmistakable trademark. It’s only logical that this moustache later became the logo of the company he was involved in: Stelling & Hellings. Primarily a manufacturer and supplier of Hot Rod parts in the 1940s and 1950s, they also offered parts for fast Harleys — including risers like the inward-angled ones shown here, which were mounted on springer forks together with a special top yoke. This made it possible to install aftermarket handlebars that didn’t have the integrated cast triple tree.
Throttle Addiction from Wisconsin designed an aluminum version of the Stelling & Hellings risers that stands out from the originals thanks to its light weight. For installation, you either need a special top yoke or you cut off the handlebar tubes of an old, no longer restorable springer handlebar.

The Cyclery Ride Controls for OEM I-Beam Forks
The Cyclery Ride Controls for OEM I-Beam Forks
Back in the days, when most roads were a far cry from what we know today the Ride Control was standard equipment and an indispensable device for the rider to react to road conditions. By turning the hand wheel you can adjust the spring action and the bounce is taken out of the front wheel on rough roads for safe riding at high speeds. As a rule of thumb you decrease friction the better the road gets and the lower the speed is, at which you ride. This detailed reproduction comes complete, ready to bolt on. A must for any restauration.
