I was really hot about this frame, but then saw this weird combo with Cervelo S1 fork, it must be some joke or that frame had a crash:D It is great looking fork not Easton like it should be, but...
Can alien fork make a difference in bike handling or geometry?

If anyone interested grab a bargain

My bike was new/old stock bargain and as a result I have a different fork, there is a 2mm difference in trail to the orginal spec (I rode the orginal spec) and it makes a MAMMOTH difference.
Lot less stable, sharper steering, no hands requires concentration depending on the road surface, that sort of thing,

BTW there is nothing wrong with that 3T fork, but you should compare the exact dimensions, which you will be able to find easy enough, and also find out why it is changed.

I just gave up about that weird combo, seller do not response and I see he is selling lot of really kool crashed/damaged carbon frames, I guess it was badly damaged.

Easton C90 fork I think should be on that frame, and it is really hard to compare those two forks, and even than I could not be sure as someone said.
Thanks!

Shame, that frame rocks:eek:
