I’d like the fork on its own I think. Bet it’ll be a reasonable price when they release it.

And the carbon fork has mid leg eyelets for ultimate hipster front rack bag graveldonneuring!
Inserts on blades for mounting a front pannier rack.
Maximum load on the fork: 9kg,thats pretty damn good.

I have the RC520. Done nearly 10000km on it now, including a lot of audaxes, and Paris-Brest-Paris. It's a cracking bike. I changed the wheels pretty quickly as I was having enormous problems getting tyres onto the stock rims.

Went to Chingford to have a look at the Triban RC520 last night. GF is looking for a winter road bike/gravel bike. Looks pretty good IRL, and you can't argue with the price. £730 for 105 r7000 and HY/RDs?! They even do a womens version now with the same frame (different paint, not pink), shorter cranks and contact points. With some lighter wheels + tyres I reckon it'll be a pretty good bike (the stock wheels are 2kg + 410g per end road tyres).
