I think keeping the original fork on this bike isn't going to work.
Seems like Simoncini must have just taken a road bike and added canti posts to make cyclocross without thinking too hard about it. And I thought my Bianchi fork was a little lightweight, yours looks very minimalist. Out of curiosity, what is the mounting stud distance on the rear? What is your axle-to-crown distance? I'm betting it's even lower than mine which is about ~380mm.
