Anyone have any thoughts/experience of the Exotic carbon or alloy rigid forks as they seem to be fairly reasonably priced compared to some?

    Know a few that have them, very good by all accounts. Also seem to be the same as the Whyte Bros fork and a couple of others.

    look the same as many of the Carbon/alloy forks out there. but with the FoamX3 being the only real difference.


    Nukeproof and Pro being two that come to my mind for now.

    ive got the alu ones, well light, stiff, and cheap! what more could you want! i thought of getting the carbon ones, but i only got them for a training/road bike and thought i wouldnt notice the 100g or whatever it is difference over the alu ones, so i saved myself 20 quid and bought some road tyres!
