Yeah, they're pretty choice, aren't they? I have a 2200 with polished stainless head lugs and an R33 built to identical geometries. Night and day different. I'm having Marc make me a steel fork for the R33. Carbon forks leave me cold... I also have a Madone 5.9SL, and while it may be more plush than the 2200, it can't quite beat the R33 for that all-day in the saddle thang.
