hahaha i know...it's a super sweet fork!
only reasons are that a previous owner put a star nut in, which scored the carbon a tiny bit, and it's 10+ years old, which is past my my comfort range for a carbon steerer tube fork (i weiigh about 175 and there is some gnarly pavement in brooklyn)
I'll do it justice though...got Easton EC90 straight blade carbon is in my ebay saved searches :-)

as a fellow brooklyn resident i also wouldn't recommend riding 10 year old scored carbon steerers around here haha

thanks man...i just took it on an adjustment ride and set things up better... it's super quick and nice. gotta swap out the headset and fork and a couple other little things at some point soon.
