That fork does look funky, but maybe it's supposed to be that way. Either way, that bendy seat tube is sexy.

yeah, nice seat tube....and you're right, the fork looks like it has a funky angle or something...

The fork has a different angle to the headtube, yet it still has rake. If you want a tighter wheelbase why not use a straight fork, why bend it the wrong way then rake it? Makes it look like it's been crashed to me.

Maybe they were trying to shorten the wheelbase as much as possible without being too aggresive with the head angle??

I dunno, that fork just screams 'crash damage' to me.
