  • multibike, I'm pretty tired of riding fixed in the swedish winter, I will probably use it a lot as a workbike wintertime.

    so i ordered a full carbon CX fork for work, and i will use OG fork for touring.

    me and two guys at my work planing a short eurotrip next summer (1500k) ish.

    Setup will be something like this /

    Sram red cranks with some wolftooth chainring,
    105/ultegra 10spd.

    Custom racks will be built for the touring ride.

    and yeah, i will repaint the frame :)

  • Just received one of those forks via AliExpress, for a project. Decent!
    Feels reassuringly well made, although not the best quality of finish, as you'd expect (a few sanding marks to alu crown casting visible through the black paint), but not a problem if you're going to repaint anyway. No complaints given it was less than £30, shipped free from China in less than two weeks. Weighs 525g with uncut steerer (matte; glossy might be heavier).
    I'll be blanking the brake hole, grinding the crown to match my head tube, and possibly adding some cable routing (internal looks unlikely) before painting.
