My Calfee has a Kestrel Fork with a gasp.....chro mo steerer. That not only has the properties you described for alloy but gives you the vibration damping of good old steel. I feel that combined with the stength and piece of mind from riding on our lousy roads is worth the small weight penalty. I would think if the rake matches what is recommended any top fork would work just as well. If you are a staight fork person I can't see what difference there could be. The last Calfee my dealer sold had a Wound Up Fork. The customer had used them and like them. That is much like me and Kestrel. Ride safely. Lon Post Extras
