Anyone got a fork brace for sale?
I don't mind if it needs some cosmetic work.

It's a Telefix from Germany.
It was in brand new condition (no surprise if you've seen pics of his restoration).  Only issue was the sticker was a little scuffed on the right hand side.  That came off easily with a little orange oil.  I can always make a water slide replacement. 


Better with or without the logo do you think?
