<< Hi, does anyone know the approximate weight for a lugged fork constructed with Reynolds 531 tubing? Thanks in advance.

Bryon,

I just weighed a fork (531) from a Raleigh International (c. 1973) with a 6 5/8" steerer: 1 lb. 15.1 oz.

A Reynolds fork from a 1973 Bertin (6 1/2" steerer) 1 lb. 11.3 oz.
