I Fought the Lock and the Lock Won


The fork lock is one of several items you'll need to remove from the frame before it can be powder coated. This is what mine looked like before I attempted to remove it...pretty harmless, huh? The problem, of course, is that I didn't have the key. If you're in the same boat, do yourself a big favor and read Duane Ausherman's article on fork steering lock removal. I didn't know about this article until it was too late, and I'm too ashamed to post the photos of what the lock looked like two days and three drill bits later. It wasn't pretty.
