i dont like this fork much other than it looks good. but other than that between the fit and i still have not ridden one where the fork worked all that well, i just dont like it. i even had one fail i installed on a customer's bike right at the crown frankly we are lucky as a shop the guy was cool and realized it was the fork and not something we did or that could have been ugly. i like that they repoped a cool old fork but it should have been changed to work with more things and setups. i really dont like the way the lower fork crown race sits and have spent hrs trying to find one to fit it and have resorted to brazing a few on because the steer is too small. i would not do it if i did not know what i was really doing or knew of a LBS that did not feel confident in installing it.
