• A question on Pre Cursa forks.

    I had the FXE with the carbon Road fork, before selling it on i did use the dolan road/winter fork on my Steamroller. It worked rather well. bit shorter than the steamroller fork and stiffer, quite a bit lighter too.
    Sort of regret selling the Dolan as it would have been a better base for spaffing around with as 10 mile TT'er.

    Soooooo, been looking and watching on here, but i get nervous about secondhand carbon forks, the Dolan with Alu steerer will fit my headseat no problem.

    Question 1 Precursa Alpina track fork, drilled for brake. Real world weight ?

    Question 2 the road fork is fairly burly and stiff, the Track looks spindly, tapered legs. How are they with a 28c tyre (can they fit one ?) how are they on tarmac ? track all right.

    Should knock half a kilo off the steamroller, whats the real world max tyre size/brand that fits. Useage would be summer time, TT practice and tarmac rides.
    Running Clement Strada LGG 28c at the moment.

  • Got the alpina road forks with 28c on with no problems, prefer the fork to the track version, got mine second hand with headset for £21 so happy, picture with mudguard fitted
