MY Trek is an 8000. What's strange is that I know it's heavier than my roadies but I cranked it up to 24 mph on a gravel trail. I was rolling pretty well when the front end felt as it if it wanted to float away!....Sure felt light that day!.......Ever get that feeling? (mine is a Rokshok Duke fork)
