I've had a look around and most places seem to list the forks as either hi-mod or ballistec carbon (ballistec was the super hi-mod carbon used for the S6 Black Inc bikes) so I think you get the lighter forks.
In comparison for fork weights from my previous Cannondales:
2014 CAAD10 fork - 368g
2015 CAAD10 Black Inc fork- 343g
2015 S6 Black Inc fork - 279gThat was with a chunk of steerer chopped off (same amount on each). Will be interesting to see how light yours is.

Cheers for your reply. I'll make sure I weigh them when the bike arrives. Be interesting to see how the CAAD12 compares to my CAAD10. I always assumed the "giant leap forward" was marketing nonsense, but it seems like they have knocked off a fair amount of weight compared to the CAAD10 and just popped into to my lbs to have a look at a CAAD12, the thing looks mean!

So with a super long steerer, my CAAD12 black inc fork weighs in at 380g. A little heavier than expected!
Not sure how much weight loss chopping the steerer will provide.

Just ordered one of these to replace my CAAD10, it got written off yesterday.

Westbrook don't specify this to be the Black Inc, yet the colour way is the same. On the Cannondale website (along with Sigma Sports and others) it says the Black Inc comes with the Hi Mod forks, reckon this one does as well and Westbrook just messed up?
