-33.769197, 150.622262 (Glenbrook Station Carpark)

Well - the 3rd running of the BMORC bash is on. Bring out your clunkers and lets RIDE! Get scabbing around the mountains in the council clean-up and get yourself a stunning rig for the Bash.

Remember - guidelines are:

1) Bike not to be worth more than $200 new or needs to be over ten years old.
2) No disc brakes.
3) You have to carry it out with you even if it is stuffed.
4) All stacks are your own fault for riding such a heap of S*&t
5) No clipless pedals (unless the bike came with them originally)
6) Must be prepared to have an embarrassing photo taken.

Do Rigid forks compromise the frame?

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.

If I put rigid forks on my alloy frame would they compromise the frame?
Assuming the frame is already prone to fatigue failure and is designed to take the load of conventional forks.
Is there something about the nature of rigid forks I need to worry about?
