Hi,
I am currently riding an Eddy Merckx Fuga with a proprietry fork. However, due to crash and wear, I felt that it is time to retire the fork and look for a worthy replacement.
Currently, the replacements that I have shortlisted are Easton EC90 SL, Reynolds Ouzo Pro, Columbus Muscle (maybe Time fork).
I would love to hear some advice that can help me decide my choice of burning a hole in my pocket. Thanks,
Cheers from Sunny Singapore, Patrick

Carbon forks I've had experience with are Alpha Q and Reynolds. Both were high quality and very light.
For a safety related item like this, stick with one of the high end brands - don't fork around with a cheapo.

How many catastrophic failures do you know of resulting from the cheapo carbon forks? ie. Nashbar/Performance ones that sell for $50-$80.
