Have you seen the real df aerospace frame on e bay?Search under viscount Lambert. £121 , from Belgium.
Am I imagining things?
Looking to go on the df rally if diary is ok. Taking the Tony Doyle, if I can fix the gear lever from slipping out of first( and get fitter).
I brought the bike from the area of the df rally i think.
cheers
Ray

Don't worry about getting fitter Ray, just make sure you can quaff a few pints.

Is that a safer mark 3?
Out of interest, how many actually had death forks at DFR1?

No idea, but I'd like to have a mark I and cycle around on it, just for the sake of it. :-)

I've recently realised that to fit a —OK I'll call it a death fork FFS!— death fork onto the Supa Sport I'd need to get one like Stella posted. Even though my DF with the 7.5in steerer should be long enough (and probably was for my 22in frame back in the day) the height of the Dura Ace headset stack means there's about one thread left for the lockring to grab onto.
So does anyone have a type 3 DF they'd be willing to swap that has a longer than 7.5 in steerer? I actually have two type-3 DFs, one 7.5in steerer and one 6.5in. Take your pick! Maybe I'll cross-post this in the wanted section as well.

Bendo, go for it (the one on eBay). I can't afford to buy more stuff for the time being. I'd rather you have it than someone else who doesn't appreciate death forks. :-)
From the description it's a mark 2, but could also be a mark 3.

Thanks Stella. Unfortunately the seller is only shipping to the US, God bless 'im. Perhaps he believes the existence of other countries is just a communist plot... b
