i'm actually riding an aluminum fork right now. i may be way off, but do carbon steerers require the use of a carbon stem? and i'm actually considering the carbon seatpost route as well, but for a material i don't REALLY trust it sure sounds like i'll be adding a lot of carbon to one cheap ass frame
