500mm Axle to Crown fork

[SteelToe]

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:

I actually have one of these forks (or at least it looks the same). I bought it from elita one a few years back on sale. The quality of the fork was half decent. 

My issues where: the post mount for the brake was not compleated flat (needed to be faced), the through axle was super heavy, and the fork had somewhat limited tire clearance (2.3 if I remember).

The 480mm should be fine since the 26mm is supposed to correct for the sag of the fork.

I have not experience with that fork but I have had f4 or 5 flyxii frames and never had an issue with them.  The brake mounts did need some work on one of my frames but I paid a shop like $60 to do it. Over all I was very happy with their products. They have been around for a while too.
