[QUOTE="Oldhaven, post: 91937, member: 2879"] The Ceriani 35 GP's I bought off Ebay for my Comet special are 28-1/2 inches from axle center to the top of the tubes below the nut. This is longer than Jim mentioned for his Egli Comet, so I may have to slide them up a bit, we'll see., They are somewhat unusual with what looks to be custom yokes that put the fork tubes 7-1/2 inches apart so the Grimeca 4LS wheel can fit well in the 6-1/8 inch distance at the axle. It is a bit hard to measure, but the offset looks to be around 2". The guy I got them from says thay may have come from someone associated with Team Hansen Racing, but it had been a while so he had trouble remembering. The yokes have a strange arrangement that uses a set screw in addition to the pinch bolt to lock the tubes. It is not an afterthought since the yokes have a boss for these cast in. I don't see any indentations in the tubes from this method, and it works well with just a slight amount of pressure [ATTACH]20128[/ATTACH][ATTACH]20129[/ATTACH][ATTACH]20130[/ATTACH][ATTACH]20131[/ATTACH].
