I'm considering sending back the carbon/alloy fork and ordering the 3T when the money comes back off the other fork. how much adjustment has to be made the the rest of the bike in order to accept a full carbon fork… and is it really worth it?
We need numbers on the both forks; especially the rake/ offset degree to help you. Otherwise we'll be forced to talk about FOOD.

The rigida, is this a new fork? Where is it coming from? Any identifiers besides the decals?
3T products are VERY easy to counterfeit in China.
