Alpha Q makes one. Not cheap, but no question as to quality. Another high end model would be the
Wound Up Cross fork. I use one and it is excellent. Dave "Colin Campbell"

Winwood makes one. I think it is the one that Litespeed uses but I have no experience with it nor do

I am curious as to why you'd use a carbon fork instead of a steel one. Surely a carbon fork that
is strong enough to install cantilever bosses on has to weigh very close to what a steel fork
would. So what is the savings considering a carbon fork is so expensive in comparison to a steel
fork which, if it does fail, will usually do so in a more user friendly manner?they are much lighter and pretty
