1987 TVT Fork on my 1990 Giant 980c. Completed a Century ride 2015 and will do another this 2016 on it. Will also swap out the spoked wheels with 90's era rear disc and front tri-spoke specialized for a 12 mile TT.

No, actually I really wanted to get the fork that matched the bike since it was new. The bike shop up in Lancaster county didn't have it in so I put the Alpha one on there. The bike shop even said this fork is perfect but I still wanted a new one.
