No it does not. If it sags when you mount or in turns or braking, it's a problem. Otherwise, no issues for street riding. I have a Indy XC on a older commuter zx, works great and I'm not gentle with it. I actually switched it out for a carbon rigid, the old XC was much nicer smoothing out potholes for my commute, switched back.

Ride it; if it handles nice, buy it. My Sid Team MTB fork is pretty damn good, but it's a useless luxury on the steet.
