I am after a steel fork to replace the carbon one on my 725 CdF. Would like to keep the geometry fairly similar.
Details:
steerer length: tbc
fork a-c: 401 mm
Tyre clearance: 35 with guards
disc mounts: is or post preferable
mounts: mudguard, mid fork for pizza rack, maybe cargo cage too?
Why you might ask? Well, I have been using my inbred for bike camping, built up after too much time on the radavist. It's awesome but given my partner is riding her CdF for the same adventures and the likelihood of my finding myself in the Andes and Kyrgyzstan is very low, the inbred is a overbiked. Currently my CdF does commuting duties, but the old front fork is both not rated for a rack and also one of the mounts is spinning in place. Hence a new steel fork, to pick up the slack.
Just bumping this having tried to buy forks from shops and been refunded because out of stock.
No one have anything?!

Formatting Help
Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.
Tips:
Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----
To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word
To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word
Embed images by entering: ![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png) That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.
* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks
1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

I am in Dublin, so would need postage.
Thanks!
