I'm looking at SP Cycle SP-MF01 in particular, wonder if it'd be "better" than similar Chinese offerings...

Thank's
I ordered the fork (SP-MF01) at the Spycycle Official Store.

How's that fork holding up? Any issues?

Talking to the seller, it is a generic mould but they manufacture in-house. He also claims they haven't had catastrophic failures with this fork - there is hope  :)

How does it ride? Weird question, I know, but my reason for going rigid (from Judy Silver air) is that I mostly ride tarmac and parks - so nothing extreme. Judy weighs 2.35kg and I'm not sure if I "need" it...

Thanks, is it their SP-MF01?

Do their brake mounts line up / machined flat or did you have to tweak these?

Also - is the inside of the steerer reamed for compression plug?

Appreciate your input, about to order - $180 AUD delivered including local taxes.

Hoping for opinions.

I've found a fork that suits the specs that I'm after, however this fork is sold under a number of brands - from OG-EVKIN, SpCycle, Winow as well as no-names. Drawing name "29F-2.8-110" - PDF attached.

Do these brands manufacture in-house based on this design or just rebrand it?

Which brand would you pick?

Thanks :)

PS: I'd be happy to go for "better" offerings from Tandell or LightCarbon but their specs differ from what I'm after - need a 60mm crown base OD and their forks are 56, meaning the head tube cone would overhang the base of the crown base. I know this is only aesthetics but it'd look so wrong...

Edit - not just aesthetics, stock fork offset is 42, while Tandell and LightCarbon are 49!

I'm sure this has been done to death, but I'm looking to "upgrade" my Judy Silver Air to a rigid.

I wouldn't mind a rigid Alu but these are difficult to find these in matching specs, so I'm looking at Ali carbon offerings.

Narrowed down to half a dozen, most have 480 CL, Judy nominal is 506 (as per Specialized specs).

The "tallest" option I found so far is FK-11, but little feedback on these or sales history. Hoping for your options on this:
