Hey All,
So, the standard icon fork that came on my lemond alpe d'huez (2001 model) is pretty bouncy. I'm a big boy (6'4, 220 lbs). When I climb out of the saddle, I can see it flexing forward pretty dramatically. It is sort of unnerving. So, I am thinking about swapping it out for something a bit stiffer.
I was wondering if you all had any suggestions. I know reynolds makes good stuff, and my LBS is currently awaiting a price on one. Are there any other brands/models I should consider?
