I would avoid that aventon fork, it's just a cheapie road fork that they're selling for premium to make profit off unsuspecting fixie owners. Carbon steerers are not really something to care about; they're overhyped unless you have a bike that costs a couple months worth of paychecks.
If I were you I would save up a couple more bucks here and there and invest in a better fork with fixed gear oriented rake. Leader has some good thoughtful offerings unlike aventon.
that's definitely clears up where a 51% discount came from. I'm just trying to learn everything I can and pretty much whenever I think I've got a a decent idea on what's what I end up reading into something that can't be used. what would you consider a worth while fork? I know you said the leader forks. any models or other brands specifically?

and scrod the stock fork is 45 the alloy steerer is 45 that 3t was 46. I know it's related to trail and front end stability but I can honestly say I don't know the difference in terms of stability between 45/46. what would you suggest for rake?
