I went from the stock, carbon Salsa fork on my LC, which had an alu steerer, to a full carbon Reynolds Ouzo Pro Cross fork. I lost nearly 3/4 pound of weight of the front end, yet notice absolutely ZERO difference in handling, braking or comfort.<br />
It;s been on the bike for two years and handled everything from road rides, cross races, crashes and singletrack.<br />
