This is what I put together lately, from parts and stuff sourced all over. Rigid, SS commuter mtb.

 

Will only be able to start riding her to work in the new year when I am fully recovered from spinal surgery.

 

Some pics of the final assembly today.

That looks exactly like the On One Carbon fork...same manufacturers no doubt.

Yip, I'm pretty sure it is. Can't believe how light they are. I know it's not as light as the Niner forks but it's still pretty light weight... and I can buy this AND a wheelset for the price of the Niner fork!

There's nothing wrong with these forks....you have a bit of to and fro flex under front wheel braking but that also helps with absorbing vibration / corrugations.

 

The particular fork in the picture was on my On One when I got it from the UK (off ebay)....I sold it to someone who did 2 Freedom challenges on it and bought it back from him a year later and they look NONE the worse for wear.

Very nice! I've been riding mine for nearly a year now and this is only the third one I've seen.

 

Many, many happy miles on her.
