I'm not as concerned about weight because it's a steel frame, a relatively light steel frame, but it is steel. However, it would be nice to have a smooth ride on the road bike while also slightly upgrading the fixed gear.
i mean, it's really not much more expensive than the (imo) horrible looking other options for cheap steel forks. never rode the bike without the fork, so can't really comment on differences versus my stock flite 100 fork. it does have an aluminum steerer, so it's not gonna be super super light. but why not, dude? a little lighter and dampens bumps.
