    I think you're the one jumping to conclusions here.

    First you want to raise this as safety/QC issue, then you delete photos so the store can't be identified?

    Which is it?

    Did you raise this with the staff/manager of the shop, since they're the ones best placed to set this horrendous breach of standards right?

    What experience of mountain bike design past and present do you have exactly? Do you remember Pace forks in the 90's, Cannondale Lefty's (You'd have a fit if you saw those). Have you ever built a bike?

    If you didn't have 4000+ posts I'd be calling elaborate troll. Since you do, I'm left to come to the only other conclusion: You know precisely sod all about bikes, tried to come off clever and got called out.

    You are wrong.

    The reason the images were deleted was to protect the individuals as the store could have been identified.

    The forks were incorrectly mounted, one of my images showed a row of the same model randomly showing dissimilarly fitted front forks.

    If you failed to see the images which were available for several hours, don't comment as you are not in a position to do so.
    Whut?

    Good of esuhl to get one of the images back. Looks fine to me ... the OP appears to be wrong.

    Bike 1 & Bike 2 'Btwin' forks are facing each other.
