If this is the Performance Bike in Cary (Near Cary Town Center) don't let them install it.. One of their mechanics installed my headset bearings upsidedown (it was pretty obvious, there was a .75 cm gap between the top race and the cap and in turn didn't cut the steerer tube long enough. He also busted the crown-race (with a seal on it), and replaced it with one without a seal, and also put in the star-nut crooked. I didn't bother to take it back to have them fix it, and did it myself. I haven't anything against Performance Bike, but some of their mechanic's methods (in NC, at least) are not exactly orthodox and clean for a paid service, besides that, though the store is fine. The fork, by itself, is worth the money. Perhaps not on your frame, though. But if you are looking to swap your frame, it is for sure worth it, in my opinion.
