If it's a suspension fork, Yea all the rake is in the headtube angle. On rigid forks, they are sometimes raked (my '92 Schwinn Hurricane is), but someone older than me is going to have to answer specific questions about that. Personally, I like to replace forks with something as close to identical as stock as I can get.
