I know it's been asked before and I've searched.
Ideally light/carbon.
Are the IS Alpina ones from On-One disc able?

Trigon do a nice full carbon disc-only but it's 420mm c2a which is a tad long for most CX bikes.

Redline do one too. Kinesis have one in their marketing but whther it's for sale yet I don't know.

Liking the bright orange and black look you've got going on there 🙂

are the salsa full carbon, or just the legs?

you might also be able to pick up s/hand the disc-only Bonty Satellite Elite - haven't seen a new one for sale for ages.

mine are steel steerer, dunno if you can get them full carbon. I've just got a road bike with full carbon forks complete with steerer and to be honest it scares the hell out of me. I've got some orange bar tape I keep meaning to put on as well. 😉

I was in Halfrauds the other day and they had Boardman hybrids which came with a carbon disc only fork. The geezer there reckoned he could get one as a spare in a few days and it was a reasonable £125ish

I have the Kinesis crosslight alloy ones and they are very nice. Light and strong. Felt better than some carbon forks I was running on a non disc CX bike before. Also some Kona P2 700c rigid Cr Moly forks are a good bet and should be much easier to get hold of than some of the above. I found it near impossible to get the carbon ones.
