Carbon Forks, Strength? Tricks?

probably because most of us have experiment with carbon in the early 00's that were prone to snapping, I should know, I got a scar to prove it (carbon handlebar).

Okay, you have a valid fear then :-)

Not sure I agree that that most people are in your camp and have experimented with carbon and had failures though?
I reckon the fear is more irrational than that. Probably even a phobia for it!
