Anyone have one of these? any noticeable flex? i am doubting that 20mm TA is necessary for a rigid steel fork that is reasonably short.
my 3" vanilla is near death and the thought of dropping $500-$600 on a fork plus $200 for a new wheel... only to gain weight from my current set-up has me reconsidering checking out rigid on the cheap.
trailblade plus a madera hub laced to a $20 singletrack with db spokes sounds pretty light and foolproof (and 1/3 the cost of an argyle/4x + a nice 20mm wheel). or even a 110g hope pro3 hub.
cheers
