What is the context of the question?
What frame are you trying to get a fork for? What is your budget? What material do you want? Steel? Carbon? Do you want a crown or unicrown? Whatever you decide to do, you'll need to know the fork specs to get the right match for the frame. http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d7...ps96beae00.jpg |

Just kidding, I wikipedia'd everybody in that list. |
@avhed: there you go: Ugo, Yoshi, Dick and Bob. :)
More seriously: I would suggest you post a picture of the bike in question. I'm sure that will lead to some more practical suggestions. |
The guys are giving you appropriately vague answers for your vague question.
I'll assume that you want a 1" threaded steel fork, because that's what most threaded forks are. Also because if you want 1" threaded carbon, you're SOL. Soma sells nice, chrome Tange 1" threaded forks in a couple different styles. Any bike shop that has a QBP account (most) can order you Soma bits. |

FIFY. |
I know there no threading on a carbon steering tube.
Crown or unicrown would be fine. Carbon blades or I would just leave it. Its to replace a Columbus SL fork, 47mm reach for brake, and 1.75 inch rake. |
Off the shelf you want something stamped 'Tange' on his steerer tube. Also look for a 'Tange' decal on the legs. Typically you'll find Tange dropouts but Shimanos are just as good.
If your looking for carbon Easton is a safe buy but the threaded ones are getting very difficult to find. |
