Got mine on Monday as well...weighs ~30g less than the Time Featherlight it replaces.

Aesthetically it is a little less "steel fork" looking than the Time. Trying to decide whether to color match it, as I did the Time (to my Chesini) or allow it to "be the CF it is".

The included expander has a nice Columbus Dove cap...but...seems not to hold well. I think I'll machine another glue-in (ala Alpha) alloy insert instead.

Rode it today and it rides pretty nice...a little stiff over imperfections (ie, not as compliant as the Time) but handles sprinting/climbing torque better....at least at my size (#185). The Time was a great fork, especially considering its age, and especially for a lighter rider!
