Non-Integrated Carbon Forks 1 1/8th?

I've been scouring the web for the last few days for Carbon Forks. I've found loads that I like the look of, but they all seem to be for integrated headsets.

I've read a fair bit of info on here, and I'm aware that you can use integrated forks on an external (normal) headset, but by doing so, you will have a gap between the top of the fork crown, and the bottom of the headset . I'm trying to find out if there are still non-integrated Carbon Forks available.

As the title suggests, I'm looking for 1 1/8th road forks, with 40-45mm of rake. Preferably around, or below the £100.

If anyone can suggest anything, I'd be very grateful.

Cheers,

Jamie.

EDIT: If anyone has anything for sale (steerer length of about 250mm) that would be awesome!

you want something fancy?

I hope it doesn't come down to this for you, but....

here in the states, we have a number of standard forks form the likes of Performance and Nashbar. I'm not even looking, but i'm sure they have it.

ok here's one

I would not consider any of these forks an upgrade, or even any thing other than a simple replacement. Mine work for a commuter, but i didn't like hammering on it.

Merlin Cycles used to have some of the older Reynolds for £70..

reynolds ouzo pro.
should be able to get a set on ebay for that money.

i used to have them on my old plug:

wtf is up with that saddle angle??... weird.

tifosi

bang

or maybe not. i dont know

SJS have these (ITM 4 Ever Carbo A-head £99.99) one click into the ad just below your post... Who says online ads don't work

I have Tifosi on my fuji track and as far as I am aware it its a non-integrated headset, fleabay is your friend! Mine were £20!

I did look at SJS aswell, fail on my behalf - thanks though.

As mentioned by others, EBay is your best bet.

There are some Alpha-q forks knocking around on US EBay

Description says also available as integrated, which suggests they come in both??

I think you want a 38mm crown diameter and not a 45mm crown diameter. Hope that helps.

these are the ones I had up for sale which you were interested in but were too short:

I was looking for ages for the same thing, a non integrated 1 1/8 and this was the best I could find for relatively cheap. Its a 'no-brand' fork and doing a google search doesnt get much, although there are a couple of ppl on forums who mention it as ok. I have had no problems with it at all, and its fully carbon so you'll need to get a fork bung thing. Hacksawing it was no problem either just stuck some masking tape over the edge and cut through that, idea was to keep it from cracking..

anyways, good beatery fork, looks cool which is the only thing that is important.

and fyi think hmrc charged me about 15-20£ for customs on it.

Thanks for that mate, very helpful!

no problem :)
