The fork itself I can't fault as they've clearly put a lot of thought into the design, but my setup is off. I'm using a short stem to reduce the overhang of the bars, and this combined with a 45 degree sweep means that steering is pretty twitchy. I've got used to it now but wouldn't recommend it. Once I'm able to leave the house I'm switching out for a longer stem and sweeping bar that isn't an H-loop copy.
RE price, they're not cheap to start with and shipping/tax/admin would make it seem pretty unappealing to me. Unless you have all the other requisite parts already, it might be cheaper to look for a framebuilder to modify a frame to a cycletruck.
