[Closed] Aesthetics Help/Advice – Specifically Rigid Forks

Afternoon all 🙂

I will shortly be building up a frame that has an oversized HT capable of taking a tapered fork.

The headset I will be running is currently configured for a straight 1 1/8’’ steerer & the forks will be steely rigids.

The question is skinny forks into an oversized HT looks a bit ...... well meh.

The steel forks are a temporary fix as I would like some carbon forks but would like to address the aesthetics i.e. the HT/HS/Crown interface.

Anyone aware of a carbon fork that would suit?

On one do a tapered carbon fork (oos just now) but it looks chunkier in person than on the website.
