Actually, it makes me wonder how many people have "bad" forks and absolutely no handling problems whatsoever.

During the factory tour part of the Calfee Owner's Ride, the issue of poor QC and forks was talked about while in the Calfee Design machine shop. Previously, lots of forks were being rejected (it's a much better situation now). I wondered why Calfee frames were more sensitive to the bad forks than other frame builders using the same fork.
...guess I missed out on my opportunity to ask The Man.
...maybe next year.
