The fork rides & looks just dandy indeed
.
However being a test mule of a discontinued model snagging a Soma Prestige fork w/ the proper rake and material to match the main tubes is part of the testing process.
Does a Prestige fork drop any weigh and "improve ride quality" on my chip-seal roads? Only one way to find out: lesson learned to incorporate in requirements for Phase II.
"Back when" we built triples for serious club cyclists "of a certain age", like me now.
A full triple 10 cog drivetrain is in a box for MKIII install.
Yep, Topeak.
It's been lent to a couple of riders who vented their CO2 cartridges into the atmosphere instead of inflating their spare tube. A generational demonstration of substance over style....
