None whatsoever. What I have noticed is that forks with more offset (rake) tend to be a bit more springy and absorb bumps a bit better, but that may also be a function of the shallower head angle that typically accompanies forks with more rake. Still, I find that ride quality is mostly determined by tire choice, and that frame and wheels are secondary factors.
