Recently I broke the front fork on my Rush City Speed, so I decided to get an air fork to replace it here is how it turned out. I just wish the bike shop ran the brake cable through the handlebars like before. It is a rock shox judy air fork and the fork is 3 to 4 inches taller than the original but I really like the way the bike rides now and the bottom bracket is now higher off the ground which will be good if I try to take if off road.

That is a cool repair / modification !! Hoping you will post an update after you have the opportunity to ride it on some backwoods trails. Enjoy!!

How did you manage to break the front fork on it?

I rode the bike pretty hard and took it off a few jumps, but the final thing that broke the fork, was my son was riding the bike then swerved to miss a car, I think he was going way to fast and ran into a concrete wall, and the steerer tube snapped in half.
