I've stuck disc forks on Pre Cursas and they work fine.
Any reason why you'll like to have cantis?
Current 105 and above caliper brakes are pretty darn good if you decide to keep the original forks.

Its just to get a little more clearance than you get with the forks it came with. Discs would mean a new front wheel and trying to track down a single cable disc setup (no point in getting a pair)
That all said, carbon canti forks seem impossible to find, so it may be back to either a steel fork or a front disc

Just thinking - could i stick a CX type fork on there and swap the front calliper out for some canti/ v type thing? I know nothing about these though - assume braking is ok and works with a drop bar (I’ve the cane crake levers) but not as great as standard callipers.
I’d then be able to get a carbon fork with decent clearance. It’d look better and save >1/2 kg
