How can I find a mountain bike suspension fork from a few years ago?
I have an old bike if I do not want to spend lots of money. I thought maybe a year older model like 2006 or 2007. Does anyone have ideas where I can buy this?
There are some places to check E-bay and Craigslist. Another option is to find a local mountain bike club and check with them, members often or if you know a lot of spare parts.

New all-mountain bikes from Transition, Commencal
The swingarm moves through 130mm of travel and the tapered headtube is designed around a 140mm fork, most likely the new Fox 34. Commencal defines an all-mountain bike not as a cross-country bike that can descend, but a downhill bike that can climb.

Natalie Bartley: Road bicycles have come a long way since the 1970s Each increase in price also lured me to better components on the bike. Unlike mountain bikes, road bikes do not offer shock absorbers on the front and back wheels, so a rider feels the bumps on the road more so than on a mountain bike with suspension. |
Saracen Tufftrax review
We'd love to see a manufacturer stick their neck out and use a rigid fork on this kind of bike, and knock 2-3lb off the weight straightaway and freeing up budget to spend elsewhere. But the truth is that suspension forks look good on the shop floor,

It's heavy, flexible and bouncy but – critically – if you're not used to a decent suspension fork then you're unlikely to notice. The 3500 has a Shimano MegaRange 13-34T freewheel with a big drop down the oversized big sprocket.
