700C gravel Carbon Fork with larger rake (50) and fits 50mm / 2.0 tires

[Tijoe]

has anyone come across a tapered head tube carbon fork with a 50mm offset, or flip chip, that will fit a 700c/29er tire that is 50mm wide?   I am hoping that in order to maintain frame geometry and head tube angle, that the fork length is still close to 400mm.

Thanks.

Not quite 50mm clearance, but I have one of these and I really like it: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Carbon-T700-Road-Bike-Front-Fork_1600997898744.html
Flip chip for 50/55mm as well. The seller was happy to customize for me as I wanted mine unpainted and with a cable routing hole on the fork leg (as opposed to the standard fully internal through the steerer tube).

Looks promising.  Can you tell me how much you paid?   Was shipping free?   I wonder if they can add water bottle mounts/cage mounts.

Can you post an image of your fork?

Speeder makes two forks that might fit the bill.

The price is as stated in the listing, shipping I think was around $60-70. It came out to about $160 which I think is a fair price all in. Probably close to two months from the time of payment to delivery.

The fork has since been painted and installed, but here's a quick picture of the bike with the fork in the 55mm offset position.

Thanks.  I wrote Shenzhen Zhaosheng Carbon Fiber Technology Co yesterday and asked a couple of questions.   For the application of the fork I want to purchase, I would like 3 cage/mount bolts on each side.  Otherwise It could work

I asked Speeder Cycling how much their fork will cost.  They replied:
SC-ADV09 fork: US$135/pcs
Thru axle: US$10/pcs
Shipping cost: US$45
PayPal fee: US$10
Total $200

I was also looking at this option from Winow, but opted for the cleaner look of the Shenzhen Zhaosheng fork in the end.

Thanks for the link.   

I have found numerous carbon forks that fit smaller tires.  I have found only a few that will fit close to a 50mm/2" tire, with a larger rake than 45mm.
