The kind of women who find Fabio attractive are also the ones who think that romance novels are great literature.

You know, those 5987234 paperbacks with the same cover:


Shirtless man, check.
Swooning woman in dress, check.
AMAZING TOTALLY ORIGINAL STORY OF AWESOMENESS, er . . .

I am wanting to buy a new fork for my Clockwork but not sure what size to get. I am looking for a carbon fork; any suggestions?! I am confused about the different mm size when looking at the forks. They have 700c 45mm or like 50mm....can anyone please help? Thanks!

Those numbers are the fork offset, aka rake, and you want to match the original fork as close as possible. I don't see that info on the bd website, so you might email them and ask what it is. Just looking at the rather slack 72 degree head angle, I would guess that the 45mm fork would be about right.

that would make sense, but it could be as low as 35mm.

I just bought a Clockwork56cm and a Dawes sst54cm and I'm going to see which one fits and send one back. I'm about 6' tall with an unknown inseam so we will see what happens. It's like shopping on the internet for shoes, but hey that is the future maybe.
