The one on my Carbonda gravel bike, looks sturdy and has mudguard holes.
And it was already tested on much harsher conditions than a road bike would generally meet.
They probably can sell it as a spare, without the frame.

Ok thank you.

I contacted hong fu,they can sell a fork,but he said he don't know if it fit on my frame,beacause their fork fit with their frame.
What do you think about that ?

My frame is cube Attain disc.



Here is the exact answer i recieved.
"We have road disc fork, but it fit our frame. I have no idea if it can fit you. Could you show your frame to us?"

Most if not all modern forks are tapered.
The base diameter is 1.5", then the tube goes conic until reaching the 1 1/8" diameter.

Check the diameter of the two holes of your headtube.
If the bottom is  about 56 or 55mm and the top is  about 44mm, a tapered fork tube will fit.

If you have both holes the same, and smaller size.
Then you need to look for a non-tapered fork.

I don't have this frame yet.

I want to buy it next week.

Here the product feature :

Headtube diameter: Tapered 1 1/8" - 1 1/4" integrated IS41 - IS47 (Cube Headset FSA Orbit  #10360)


So,with your answer i know i can buy anything i want with 1 1/8-1 1/4.

Thank you.

No... it seems tapered but 1 1/4 - 1 1/8 instead of the usual 1 1/2 - 1 1/8 you will find from most chinese frames & forks.
Unfortunately probably something specific to Cube: https://www.bike-discount.de/fr/acheter/cube-headset-fsa-orbit-c33-acb-1-1-8-1-1-4-619496

Yes
I think it's problem to find fork and other parts.

So ,i think about a Chinese gravel frame.
Possible yishunbike R004-D or R007-D.

For the moment.....reflection

They look greats but not in my budget.

All time ,money says yes or no.

I wanted the cube because it's a 2016 model and the price is good (250€).
Beacause i want to buy all parts little by little.
The aim is to build the bike for the next year.

And the big costs are frame,wheel,group.

Thank you for your link.
