broke CS-092-SL fork and xmcarbonspeed gone?
toolong:
Hi Guys,
I need a new fork :(
I built up CS-092-SL for a friend in 2016. This week the fork broke under trivial stopping load. Would love to buy a replacement fork (and hope it was a one off defect), but I can't get peter to reply to my emails(been 3 days). Usually these guys are super-responsive. All their posts seem to stop in summer of 2017. Anyone bought anything from xmcarbonspeed.com in 2018?
This fork snapped under supposedly very moderate speed under 180-200lb rider who borrowed the bike and tried stopping rapidly.
I'm pretty sure other forks wont fit this frame. Suggestions on what to do?
carbonazza:
Your friend was lucky to not get hurt.
Did you know if there was any weight limit mention for the bike ?
Do not worry about delays, sometimes there are holidays.
toolong:
Yeah she was super-lucky. No weight limits.
toolong:
carbonaza or anyone else do you happen to have http://www.carbonda.com/road-frames/73.html ? This looks pretty damn similar to cs-092-sl. The fork might fit

Still no news from Peter ?
Yes, they will be compatible as they are both Tapered( kind of conic at 1-1/8" top to 1-1/2" bottom )
And seems to acomodate 700c*28mm tires, you can ask this to Carbonda.
It looks the same as my Carbonda gravel fork, that looks sturdy.
I did hit it hard quite a few times.
