Well here is where the inside diameter of the head tube vs the outside diameter of the headset are going to be important.

Ask the seller to send pics of the other sides of the box so you can see the size info.
Mr Crudley
was a wheel size expert
If I had to roll the dice then the word 'original' to me says 1 1/8" straight steerer
Sure looks like it would be the one.

They are a very personal fit, knees and elbows are 2 items I will go and buy local usually.
Head down to 99bikes or similar and try on a set of Fox Enduro elbow sleeves or the more expensive Fox Launch D30.
Buying elbows always sounds like a good idea, I find that I only wear them on black shuttles.
Go for a lighter set rather than DH level protection as you will have a bitter chance of wearing them regularly.

As ozzybmx said they are a personal fit type of thing, but I've been using Dakine Slayer knee and elbow "sleeves", i find them comfortable and I hardly know I'm wearing them. Made from special jizz that firms up on impact like that D30 stuff, so can be a little stiff when cold but once they warm up they conform to my arm really well.

@ozzybmx @fjohn860 thanks for the advice. I went to a 99 and found the Fox enduro sleeves dont agree with my arms, the Launch D30 fitted ok with the two velcro straps but they seemed a bit hard core so had a look around a few other places. There was not much to choose from, some 7IDP Sam Hill lites fitted well but I couldn't justify the cost $115 against the Launch D30s at $74 so went back to Pushys and got those.
I then dutifuly handed them over when I got home to be regifted tomorrow

I would assume if the company putting those stickers on the forks cared for their product they would care enough to publish some information. But if they are cheap and you just want to pedal to the shops on them...I'm sure they will do the job.

But they are good for a 5KW bike at 75kph with no pedals

Thought I would try them out, don't laff but for 165 bucks plus post I thought I'd give them a crack. Saw someone selling the same fork on Facebook for 300.But they are good for a 5KW bike at 75kph with no pedals

These motorcycles (they aren't e-bikes) have bamboozled me good about this...that brand in particular is generally decked out with what appear to be MTB parts, mostly dh gear, but surely they outweigh and go faster than a mountain bike? It does also remind me of the pit bike thing from way way way back where low cc motos were being decked out with MTB forks etc.But they are good for a 5KW bike at 75kph with no pedals
Look heavy...

Anyone used MTB Suspension Works for a service? https://www.mtbsuspensionworks.com/
A mate lives nearby and needs a service so was thinking of using them.Website looks good but I’ve not heard of them before so looking for recommendations. Thanks!

It's Not Easy Being Green
I looked at that recently as an option, but the web site doesn't work properly and couldn't book in for a service.
If he lives near by it can't hurt to drop in, but I figured it was just as easy to send it to one of the proven guys up north.
