A couple of options:
http://www.on-one.co.uk/i/q/FOOOCR26DO/ ... _disc_only (looks like IS mount though)
http://www.carboncycles.cc/?p=960& (slightly cheaper on eBay)
I'm after something similar, but lower budget0 -
Why post mount only?
IS is so much better.0 -

Looks like they've used the seatstays off an Inbred!Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0

Just an observation, two upright sections extending past the welded in shoulders to centre tube, look at a pic of an on-one Inbred!Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0

the bike is quite angular looking so didnt want a rounded looking fork.... was very tempted by the guesset rigid but this looked more refined..... just waiting on the IS to post adaptor so I can get it fitted.

On-One do a rigid steel fork that looks exactly like that too. It would probably match an Inbred frame very nicely.Specialized Roubaix Elite 2015
