Overall Product Rating 4.5 / 5
Decent but dropout rack mounts not optimal

ConsNot good for Tubus rack, straight blades relatively harsh.
ProsSolid, big tyre clearance many mount points.
A solid fork with big tyre clearance. The mounts on the rear of the dropouts are not good to fit a Tubus Tara rack. They're too low meaning that the main rack tube covers the qr skewer ends and therefore requires spacing out too much. Ended up having to use the mudguard mounts of the tara as points to mount the rack (not ideal as they're less substantial than the intended points) in conjunction with the front dropout mounts on the fork. The result is a main rack tube that is angled such that the panniers are not well supported behind. It is unlikely but they could just about flap into the spokes over rough ground.
Massive clearance

ProsBombproof and huge clearance
I bought these to replace a broken set of forks on a gravel/monster cross bike. The crown to axle is 20mm out so longer than I would have been ideal, but they are bombproof and offer huge clearance.
