• Bought the 606 - had it for a 2 months and i still have teeth. used the mounts for cages with luggage and now have a pizza rack on it carrying 5-10kg tops. Seems okay so far. The steerer was pretty ugly when it showed up and in hindsight I should have got the 505 fork, the mounting points are lower down and you can mount things to the front of the brake bridge, which you can't with the 606 (which mean the pizza rack needed a bodged work-around).

    Carbonda were pretty good to deal with - offered a full refund if i wasn't happy due to the ugly steerer and it arrived within a week or two.

  • Thanks a lot for the feedback, good point about the 505, will have to do some digging about clearance I guess - ideally I'd like to be able to fit 700c 40mm with guards.

  • I have some panaracer slick gravel-thingys in 38 with some sks mudguards. A bit of room left so I'd imagine you could squeeze in 700x40.
