This the fork you’re taking about? This was the other choice I was considering for the hopper but decided for the shorter a2c.
The reversed brake bosses are a little quirky wasn’t too sure how I would mount a canti hanger on them so I guess I would be v brakes only?
Anyhow they do look great for a sus corrected fork especially the twin crown!

Nope. I was talking about the regular Nomad - definitely agree the twin crown is a very nice touch.
Reversed bosses - for cantis you’d have to use a widget like the Tektro Power Hanger.
The carbon Thorn fork I have (reversed bosses!) has been a long slow case of buyers remorse for me: Offset looks weird. Awkward to fit a brake and a mudguard. Not that much of a weight-saving, overall. Shoulda gone with steel : )
Nomad: Just looked at it again (I was half-heartedly looking for a 26er fork a month or so back).
This detail though:
“reversible brake bosses allow either 559 or 584 rims”
Can’t see how it’s done. Any idea?
