House of Looptail

1" Threaded Regressor Cantilever Fork

The House of Looptail 1" Threaded Regressor Cantilever Fork is a chrome-finished 4130 chromoly rigid fork built for riders keeping classic 26" builds rolling—whether that’s a vintage Schwinn-style frame, a 26" BMX/cruiser project, or a retro mountain setup that benefits from modern brake and tire clearance. With a true 1" threaded steerer, broad axle compatibility, and suspension-corrected geometry, it’s a straightforward way to restore handling and add practical brake options without abandoning the classic standard.

Built-in cantilever/V-brake studs keep rim-brake service simple and widely compatible, while clearance for larger tires helps these older platforms ride more comfortably and with more control on broken pavement, gravel, and hardpack.

Fit + function details that matter on vintage 26" builds

1. 1" threaded steerer (180mm long / 60mm threads) - Fits up to 5.5" headtubes for common older headsets and quill/BMX-style stem setups
2. Suspension-corrected for 80–85mm forks - Maintains more appropriate front-end geometry when replacing a short-travel suspension fork with a rigid option
3. Cantilever and V-brake studs - Supports widely available rim brakes, making it easy to keep older bikes serviceable with current parts
4. 3/8" and 10mm axle compatibility - Works with common hub axle standards found on cruisers and BMX/utility 26" wheels; includes non-marring dropout washers to protect the finish during installation
5. Room for up to 2.35" tires - Adds real-world versatility and comfort for mixed-surface riding and everyday durability

Additional details: fits .833" BMX stems and includes dropout eyelets for practical mounting needs.
