Those Carlinis are really nice. I think they're perfect on your bike. They go really nicely with the overall look, they don't mimic any fads, they look like they offer really solid control... Perfect on a bike that is completely unique and offers usable performance as well as personal style.

Super short riser tubes and 1.5" throughout, so they're stiff as hell. Too heavy, probably. Would love to see some in Carbon. Regardless, combined with the solid bushings and 49mm front end, there's almost no flex in the front end. None I can feel anyway. I'll probably still add a fork brace eventually. Just to help keep axle flex and fork twist at a minimum. Want to find (or make) one that integrates cleanly with a small splash guard/fender. I like the no-fender look but eating gravel and spray can get old.
