Default WideGlide front fork on a Bob?
I love the look of the raked out fork on the WideGlide. Would this be interchangeable with the Bob's front fork? Plus I like the idea of the 21" front wheel.

Default RE: WideGlide front fork on a Bob?
The rake is the steering head angle. The wide glide frame is different from the rest of the dynas. I don't see why it wouldn't fit (although I could be wrong). However, that's not going to change the rake. You'd have to replace the whole frame for that.
