That ski is not even close to being the same as the Mag Photo. Looks like it was made for a non suspended fork setup, why else have a shock/spring on the ski? Looks home made to me. On the closeup picture of the fork mount bolt you can see the weld where the square tubing joins and looks "amateur'ish" (yeah i made that word up) :-)

I think the seller was honest in his description, but that is just my opinion based on what I read.

"This is a vintage ATC front "tri ski" which totally replaces the entire front ATC three wheeler tire with a "suspended" front ski.

"This item is "similar" to the front ski that 3 wheeling magazine used back in 1985 and when they tested the snow tires.
