On-One Carbon Fork
Quality MTB forks with full carbon stanchions and forged alloy crown / drop-outs. Superlight, stiff these and excellent at absorbing bumps and they are an excellent alternative to suspension forks on smoother terrain or for riders who pick their way through the rocks rather than riding over them.
- Axle to crown (mm)- 26er: 440, 29er: 470
- Weight (grams)- 26er: 920, 29er: 970

"I can highly recommend this fork. I've had this one since 2007, and it has been dinged, crashed, and thrashed since with no issues. I've had it on an On One Inbred, an OS Bikes Blackbuck, and this 2007 Salsa El Mariachi. (Plus maybe something else I can't remember!)
The ride isn't as flexible as the Origin 8, and probably more like the White Brothers Rock Solid. The forks most folks are mentioning here are in fact all made by one firm, but are made to different specifications. Their booth at Interbike last year showed at least a half a dozen variations of this fork, (Origin 8), and all had slight differences in lay up, details, and so on.
This On One fork was designed to Brant Richards' specs and isn't like these other forks at all. If there is one flaw to it, it is that certain hub/brake combos don't play too well together with it. Otherwise, it is a stellar piece."- Guitar Ted

I ordered these on Tuesday to replace my ageing Rock-Shox Pilots and they arrived on Thursday, all nicely packaged up. Nice work guys. The swap saved exactly 1000g off the bike and it now steers the way I always wanted it to. The stickers were easy to remove for that "clean look". They look and feel like a quality product. The slightly lower front end tracks perfectly and they iron out a lot of the trail noise I was expecting from a rigid front end. If you're considering it - go for it. Be prepared for the stress of cutting the steerer to size though and of fitting a star-nut. And, if you are not of a nervous disposition you'll enjoy watching them flex under heavy breaking. In summary, recommended. Rody

Hi Tim, if you buy the other version of the carbon fork (420mm axle to crown model the one with V-brake mounts) you may be able to fit other brand mounts but as far as we're aware there's no standard fitting for these so you'd be better sticking with the On-One ones. Not that this fork is disc only.
