The reason you don't see any carbon frokss on touring bikes is simply that they don't have the "braze-ons" for mounting front racks and fenders and carbon forks don't like silly clamps.

I'm sure that if they used the latest cyclocross forks as a basis and the manufacturers put on the proper fittings they would make a GREAT touring fork.
