See about getting a Ritchey Comp Carbon Cross fork. They're reasonably priced, hovering around the $190 - $210 range, and with an alloy steerer instead of full carbon, there's less worry about breakage.

I don't know if Redline sells the RCT fork on its own, but I've been loving mine on my Conquest Pro. The upper blade has a massive beefy profile with a slight bulge to the canti posts; there's no flex to that upper section.

If you're going carbon, you'll want to look for one with a crown mounting hole for a cable hanger to reduce brake vibration, a.k.a. the dreaded carbon squeal.
