Genesis fugio? Heavy though

Why steel? Alu work just as well.

I have a CDF with a carbon fork and tbh all I ever think about is getting a steel fork so that I can mount a trendy front rack and get on the r**davist so I wouldn't worry about carbon fork options.

I have a CdF (as does another friend) & four friends have Brother Kepler Discs - we all rate them really highly. Great, versatile bikes.
I managed to get a carbon fork for mine too for not much on here (same is available for less than a hundred quid on eBay), half the weight of the steel one!

I've been looking for a steel frameset with a bit more 'adventure' capabilities to swap out with my genesis equilibrium disc.
options so far;
brother Kepler disc - on sale for £350 at the moment.
cotic escapade - nice but a bit more ££
croix de fer 725 - has straight steerer so limited on carbon fork options
fearless vulture
Ribble 725 - pricey frameset
any other steel frame options worth considering?
