WTB: Easton EC90 or SLX 1" fork
Like the title says, looking for an Easton fork. Could be regular, straight or aero model. Preferably SLX, but could be regular EC90 as well. 1" steer tube. Need it to fit a 56cm frame, so maybe 200mm or so of steerer? If you have one that you are able to part with, let me know. Looking to buy, but I have a ton of parts and would do a trade as well if I have anything on interest. Thanks!

I know I have an NOS EC90SLX, but I think it's 1.125". I'll check tomorrow.
If you can't find one and are willing to go for an alternative, I like the "Air Rail" forks that were on Lemonds back at the time. But it sounds like you know what you want.

Thanks!
Looking for the Easton for its weight weenie properties I suppose something like an Alpha Q Sub 3, or possibly a Ritchey would also work.
I actually have a couple of 1" carbon forks that weigh as much as some higher end 1" steel forks (500-600 gram range), so I'm not using them, I'm just running the steel forks.

I had it on a LeMond Tourmalet, replaced it due to toe overlap. Axle to crown brake mount center 360 mm. Some minor scratching under crown
I think $75 shipped conus
