I've put a Chris Hoy stem on the green bike so there's a precedent, sort of (who cares when it's under layers of tape and garmin mount and whatever). Seriously though we've seen a couple of nice potential options but they're due for April 2019 or later so we have to find something else in the meantime.

Anybody used the Arkose Carbon Thru-Axle forks?

(I may.... will still ask you for a rack at the end of it all, if you don't mind)

These fork are excellent and have clearance for 650b 2.3 tyres (58mm), 50mm rake also helped.

Replace the thru axle skewer with a Shimano one and you're sorted.

Thanks for the info, much appreciated, and good to hear. Almost sounds like there is too much clearance and 650bx47 will look gappy!

That may well be the forks sorted, phew.
