Once again this padawan turns to you more knowledgeable peeps for further advice.
Looks like i'll be going for a TIFOSI Pista Fork, i've found one on here selling for a good price. The rake on it though is 30mm. Now i've never ridden with one of those before, i understand that kind of rake is aggressive and gives a twitchy and very responsive steering, now i can adjust my riding style just fine, but what implication does that kind of rake have for ride comfort, would it be stupid to ride that on an everyday commute in the streets of our beloved London?
21cm steerer enough for 58cm frame?
crank arms. 165mm or 170mm? I've never ridden 165mm. is the difference in power transfer really that noticeable for a non competing rider? From searching on Google and around here that seems to be the case. Just wanted to double check.
Once again, your input is enlightening and much appreciated.
