I replaced it with a carbon fork since I'd rather have a yes/no choice,rather than a maybe. I replaced a Ti (Litespeed) frame with a Calfee and I feel it was the best choice I ever made.If I crash it,I'll send it back to Calfee for repair or replacement.Until then,I'll enjoy the ride and performance.
