Hi guys. I am working on piecing together my Rob Roy for CX racing. I really want to put a sweet carbon fork on it for the build and their are just too many to choose from to even know where to begin. I see some seemingly well known brands like winwood, easton, alpha q, reynolds, Richey.
I would probably feel more comfortable on the aluminum steerers rather than the carbon ones but it's not a deal killer. The Richey Cross Comp has an aluminum steerer and is light...
In case it matters, the build is a Rob Roy 58 single speed CX bike to be used in CX races in TX. I am 6'0" 185lbs, currently working down to at least 180lbs. I was 215 while body building but that doesn't work well while racing....
Your thoughts and experience would really help here!
