Budget is £400 max really which seems to give you quite a bit of choice at 140 but very little at 160 which is what I need. The only ones that seem to fit are Marz 55 TST2 2011 which I can get for 380. Just concerned about the realibity, anybody any experince with last years, I had some 08's with tst that had to keep going back. They do have a 3 year no warranty service now, or is there anything else?

Unorthodox idea maybe - 150mm forks and a thicker lower race?

Interesting idea not sure on headset choice as it has one of those semi integrated ones.

CRC have a ridiculous sale on right now. I almost wish I needed new forks.
