Ok, so I've finished the refurb of an old Raleigh Equipe, my first restoration project. While I know the old Equipe was never the greatest bicycle, I do love it dearly, largely because of the huge amount of time I've invested in its rebirth. Thing is....I've seen some carbon forks with a 1 inch steerer which are reasonably priced (a hard thing to find I've discovered).
Question is, should I keep the retro look of the chrome forks I've currently got on, or do I go for the carbon? The chrome forks seem quite comfortable but everyone tells me the carbon forks will be better. Any comments would be welcomed, I'm gonna try and do a poll....
