I just sent an email to canecreek with these pictures. It’s worth noting that the carbon china fork I got with bad brake caliper mounts refunded me on the spot with no return. Also when I got a bad custom Ti fork out of china for my Ti bike build they also refunded me in full with no issues. So far the china companies have stood behind their product with full refunds no questions asked. Let’s see how one of the high end companies handles this.

For the record I got this invert because I don’t trust the Ritchey wcs fork I already have. This is because the head tube on the wcs is from the 90s and I would have to adapt from 1.25 integrated to 1.5” taper with a crown race. Who even makes a frame with a 1.25” head tube anymore? lol
So this is a double fail for the high end forks lol. $1600 in forks and I need a $400 head set/adaptor only made by Chris king for the Ritchey or the steer tube is total junk on the invert. High End Quality Baby! Bad layup and 30 year outdated designs that requires expensive adaptors.
