I decided it was time to replace the front tire on my LAPD ELDO today. It has twin discs--an upgrade from the single unit I bought it with. As I usually pop the first 2 or 3 tubes as I put the new tire on I was really suprised when everything came together with no suprises. No tubes ruined and everything as it should be. I'm tightening up the axle pinch bolts when--SNAP the fork lower cracks above the cinch bolt. Think of a curse word--then yell with all you got !! The bike is now unable to be moved-sitting in my drive as I try and figure out where to get another fork lower. Anybody got 1 to spare ?? I need the left fork lower for the Eldo for the disc brake model. Thanks.........KO
