I am getting a new track frame built and looking for some stout forks to put on it.
Can anybody recommend any good, stiff fork for a sprint bike? Carbon, steel or otherwise... |

I use Carbon track forks that Paul Hillbrick distributes (he didn't build my frame though). I think the brand name is Roselli. They have a carbon steerer tube and are built quite solidly. I would recommend them for general track racing as they seem quite stiff and very light for track specific equipment. |

I notice that BT now sells a new fork called the Inter-Sprint. I have ridden the old fork from the sprint frame, but not the new one. It is less expensive too.
Anybody offer any comparison or feedback on the new fork? |

Thats the ones,though i got the forks with the alloy steerer.At the moment there is a set of carbon track forks on ebay by Alpina.Im not selling them but they look pretty good if you need a 1' steerer. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI...me=STRK:MEWA:IT
