Bikes: Roads Moutains Fixed Vintage

I test rode a Ridley CrossWind with the renowned 4ZA fork. Carbon steerer, flexed more than I thought a cross fork should.

Most carbon steerers flex a little bit. The ones that dont have staggered bearings size (madone, SL2).

Carbon is designed to flex in a designed direction and be stiff where needed. Have a good shop check it out.

But its probably the nature of the beast.
