and who makes them (in carbon)?
the Niners all seem to be 470mm, but I think that's "80mm suspension corrected"
We have the Carver Trail 490 forks in stock. Full carbon, 15mm through axle and £320. They're bob on.
490mm as above. Kinesis and White Brothers as well. Or for the sake of 5mm in a-c i would be tempted by one of these so i could stick a knard on the front which, thinking whilst i type, would probably negate the drop in a-c because of the bigger outer diameter of the knard.

Thx folks, I thought so. Those Travers look nice (out of stock in 15mm axle tho).
Salsa reckon it's 483mm
