Maybe I'm just a badge snob then, but yeah. I'd see expensive, fancy forks on my Pompetamine as being a bit silly.
For me, the real reason I want new forks is purely cosmetic. I could live with unicrown if they were tapered like the Cotic steel ones, and ideally I'd like segmented ones to match the rear triangle, but the combo of unicrown and curved legs just looks ugly to me. But regardless of the logic of the situation, I just don't feel happy spending £££ on a fork for that frame. If a cheap Kinesis came up on ebay though, I'd be all over it.
