The Nashbar Carbon Mountain Bike Fork is great for urban mountain bikes with dead suspension forks, or if you're looking to shed some weight. The 385mm axle-to-crown height is just right for bikes that originally came with ridgid forks, or forks with less than 80mm of travel IS Disc mount and dropouts are aluminum
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

Great Fork!
Amazing.
This fork looks great, rides great, and is light weight!
About 2 to 2.1 lbs according to my kitchen scale with the uncut steer tube.
The steer tube is aluminum, Yes! (I was afraid it would be heavy steel or brittle carbon).
Bosses are included for V brakes and disk brakes, and also a hole for center pivot cantilevers.
The geometry was pretty close to my old Rock Shox Judy XC (cross country suspension fork).
I dig it. Pleasantly surprised with how well this worked out.

Great fork!
I have an older mountain bike that came with a low end suspension fork. Since I ride mostly on fairly smooth trails and bike paths, I decided to convert to a rigid fork. This fork turned out to be a superb choice. It's well built, relatively light (much lighter than the suspension fork), beautifully shaped, nice carbon weave showing through the gel coat, all in all a looker. I was concerned with the bike geometry getting altered substantially with the rigid fork, but this fork's crown is fairly tall, I didn't notice any substantial changes both in look and in riding. Fork is robust and rigid, it really transformed the bike, it now steers like a road bike with sharp response and precision. Comfort isn't compromised, road buzz to the handle bars aren't worse than the suspension fork. It takes a bit more work to hop a log but the fork seems to take reasonable impact fairly well. So, my bike lost a lot of weight, looks better, rides better, steers better, I can't be more happier with this...
great product
can't beat them if you are a casual rider. Nashbar shipping to APO is awful though. everything I have ordered as arrived either on the last day of the 30 day shipping or late. 3 satrs for pricy shipping and the slowest time to delivery
