Thought I'd update everyone who kindly responded to
my email about carbon versus aluminium forks.
Well, I've just installed a Time Equipe Pro fork
and would say it's probably the best upgrade I've
ever made on my Merlin. The Time rides slightly
smoother than a Sakae FX fork but comes into it's own when
cornering. I now feel like I can dive into
corners and know I can steer bike back upright! I've always
that I was a shy downhiller -- turns out to be untrue
with the new fork.
Now, if only someone could help me decide on an
Extralight over a Road in terms of comfort, I'd
really be a happy camper!
