Just finished installing a Carver 26 inch rigid fork to my 2001 Marin Hawk Hill, replacing the old insync 327 fork. First time I did a major upgrade to a bike. I had already replaced to handlebars from the original mountain bars to an alt bar with about 40 degree of sweep. Running Schwalbe Marathons 26x1.5. I’m going to ride it like this for a remainder of the summer and fall a d college more parts for the drops. Newbie here so I can’t post pictures yet.
