R Russell Old School Grand Master Jun 30, 2012 #31 Would be interesting to know which failed first, the metal sleeve on the inside or the carbon fork leg. Could the flex in the carbon legs cause the metal sleeve to work harden and fail, leading to the failure of the legs themselves?

yo-eddy Gold Trader 98+ BoTM Winner Feedback View Jul 1, 2012 #32 the Ti is cracked, carbon seems not to be clamped in the crown at all......
R Russell Old School Grand Master Jul 1, 2012 #33 That's what I thought. The titanium is inserted in the crown and the carbon leg bonded over the top? This is the second set of RC31s I have seen that have failed this way. Same leg too.
