New carbon forks needed for an ageing Bianchi

Big Dave

The carbon forks on my faithful old Bianchi ML3 have started to look fairly tatty and I was wondering if anyone knows of a decent replacement fork for around £150ish. I'd ideally like to get a Bianchi fork but I suspect they don't sell anything comparable to my old fork these days.

Anybody got any recommendations?

Have a look a the Kinesis forks. I got some as a replacement for my cracked ITM ones. Ridden for two years now and very pleased with them. Good customer service with Dom at Kinesis replying to my raft of e-mail questions very proptly

I had a similar issue on the early 928 I had and wanted matching forks.

First try ebay. If you're happy with an Carbon fork/Alu steerer there are usually several for sale in Black/Celeste. Quite often brand new.

When I was at the cycle show last year I was talking to someone from Bike and Run (http://www.bikeandrun.co.uk). He reckoned that he could get Bianchi forks ordered.

Ironically after I sold the 928, a pair of full carbon Bianchi forks came up on ebay in white. Typical!

Thanks for the feedback chaps. The Tifosi forks look tempting at those sort of prices.

Of course, once I've got a new fork I'll need to get the frame resprayed as a new fork and a tatty frame would look naff. Just as well I don't mind spending money on the old girl...
