Thank you on the color compliment. I try.
the mix of components would only be noticed by folks like me who know that era of Spesh cross bikes that had that fork, in fact the black fork looks really nice on that frame. Very classy.
Did you have concerns about how the bikes geometry would be with the fork change? I never pay attention enough to recall trail and whatnot terms, but was this fork fairly close to the original in those tech terms? It must be as I know you wouldn't put on a fork on a bike for your daughter that brought in wonky handling.
