Either way thanks Now that I've seen your Lynsky, I'm thinking about a Easton EC90 fork for a new Merlin Build. I was restricted to a Reynolds Ouzo Pro 'cause of a 1" tube, but the Merlin's got a 1-1/8"
How do you like the EC90 fork?

If you've got nothing titanium, do what I did in my last post, and post your dream ti. Not that I would ever spend $164,800 for a motorbike...

Ti sure is some great stuff !
