I recently started getting into road bikes and got a Giant OCR2. I am looking getting a new carbon fork. The orginal is a 1" integrated and threaded.

My question is: Should I get a threaded or threadless fork? I am going to swap out the adjustable stem for a better one anyone. Should I got to threadless fork and get a new headset and stem or stick with the treaded stuff?

Is the carbon fork offered by Giant (made by Time) any good? I was looking into the Reynolds Ouzo Pro fork too.

All info will be appreciated.

Assuming you can find a suitable replacement for your threaded setup,may as well go threadless.Hell of alot more fork choices.Ouzo is good.
