Was it worth the weight penalty swapping a fully carbon fork for a fully steel fork? A resounding yes is my answer. Whatever uphill losses because of weight is easily mitigated by the added confidence and feel of planing in the flat. It's as though there is more rebound energy returning from every pedal stroke. Feels taller and longer which gives me more confidence when leaning through downhill turns. It's only been a day, WoW
