i for one can see that the rear of tubes at the crack are bent inwards/forward and this indicates that it was not a clean break JRA. Maybe a stray squirrel got in there??
But even with than in my mind its pretty extreme for a fork to break like that. thats why i always run steel forks. because steel is actually real.
