I sold the Wound Up and put on a touring fork I had around to use temporarily. I loved the ride of the Surly fork and may just get one but was wondering how the Winwood carbonforks rides? Anyone riding one of these that can offer an opinion?

I think you'll varying opinions as usual. I've heard some good things. However, my friend has one on his Salsa Las Cruces. On 3 separate occasions, he's had severe fork shudder, mostly on road descents > 25 MPH. I'm sure it's due to the whole setup of his fork, headset, and frame, so YMMV. But it would scare me...
