fork choices

<Does anybody know when the 56cm's came standard with the 1 1/8th forks? this has a one inch, so that will clue me in on the age.>

First, congrats on your new bike, you'll like it!

However, I don't think a 1" fork will clue you in on the age. You can buy brand new Calfees, in all sizes, with 1" forks. In fact, except for extremely large frames or tandems, Craig has stated a preference for that size.

For 56cm or larger, 1 and 1/8" forks are a "no-charge option."

Personally, unless you're extremely large, a 1" fork should be fine for the majority of people. The plus of a 1" fork is it will be lighter!
