    Hi,

    I'm looking for a rigid fork to install on a 29" Ti Deluxe.

    I saw a beautiful steel Vicious but I'm not sure if I prefeer a titanium one.

    Is There much difference between one and another?

    Any suggestions?

    Black Sheep unicrown?

    Thanks!

    Get a Niner carbon fork! I have used the steel one (IF) and liked it, but the Niner is wicked stiff and light. IF will also paint it whatever you want.

    Niner carbon, let me think about that… No!

    ;-)

    This carbon fork is bery beautiful (and good!), more than other carbon forks (DT too) but I'm of the opinion that this fork looks good whit aluminium and carbon frames; steel & titanium needs "metal".

    Still think about Niner. In addition there are bold colors!

    Thanks!

    The Niner fork is a good recommendation.

    A very recent former IF employee swore by the Salsa cromo fork if an IF steel isn't an option for your bike's geometry. I have several rigid IF forks, and am anxious to also try out my new steel Salsa fork on my SS this season.

    Haven't tried anything else rigid, just have exp. with IF, Salsa, Kona, and a Pace carbon fork. Good luck.

    Bet a Vicious one would be very nice too!

    Sorry Dave, but this is not a fork, is a work of art!

    Convinced! :wink:

    (Even I would be able to paint the titanium!)

    Darren, I have a 26" Vicious and I'm very satisfied.
