New Fork
Hi all, in my boredom today i was thinking of possible upgrades to my bike, and the idea came across my head of a fork upgrade. I'm currently riding a (don't laugh) GMC Denali road bike from walmart. I'm not the biggest fan of it, but it gets the job done for my regular riding. I was wondering: how much would an upgrade to a carbon fiber fork affect ride quality/performance? and if so, any suggestions for forks for a possible future investment?
Thanks.
Thanks.

would make a difference over the alu fork but you might as well save up for a new bike.
otherwise, forte brand (performance bike) has some cheap carbon forks.
