Yes it will, but you`ll need the front wheel as well (unless you get new caliper brackets made)....

I was also wondering the same question. I have to admit it is tempting to give it a go. Problem at the moment for me is money, had plenty of opptunity to save up but give that I am 22 and enjoy riding the bike and spending on it, along with days out and meals ect, I have put anything away and now I am trying to. The joys of being young. If you do go for it hope you quickly source everything you need. I know the seller is selling some other bits to go with it like calipers and discs seperatly.

Having taken onboard a bit of advice, I'm going to pass on it. Project improve the forks and brakes continues though.....

Mostly on other forums...I'm ashamed to admit here that I'm an avid fan of the MK3 Golf GTI so that's been taking up my time and the Firestorm has been tucked up in the garage since November :shh:

Off topic but for those that think you get a post count for every post you have, spikenipple 2nd post above Sebs and above this one you have his third, yet the post count remains at two. :thumbup:

Oh yeh, I didn't bother looking and assumed he had one from Sebs comment and then there was the two on here. Doh I'm wrong. :lol: That will teach me not to double check. :oops:
