I forgot to note that Masi forks appear to be ride superior in the dampening dept.
Having written that, I have a bunch to test, with Fischer crowns (with and without slots) , Cinelli MC crowns, Twin plate crowns, Henry James crowns...
What I can report is that the twin plate crown forks almost always ride smother and absorb bumps better...
Save for every once in a while they seem to amplify vibrations. Touch the front the brake, and all goes away.
