A car ran over my fork this weekend and I have to replace it. I am not sure I can get an original so I am wondering if anyone knows what fork maybe equivalent. The fork is from a 06 Fuji Team RC and it is FC440 monoque carbon fork. I have emailed Fuji to see if they can suggest where it would be available and I have Performace looking to see if they can get one. I am just wondering what other fork might be similar in performance and construction. Thanks Glen.

I just had an incident as well and got a Reynolds Ouzo Pro fork...highly recommended. Make sure you measure the rake of your existing as this will effect handling characteristics, common rakes are 40mm, 43mm and 45mm. So, you have to be accurate in your measurement of your old fork

Be sure to consider fork length too. A fork that is longer or shorter than your current unit will change the effective head angle of your bike. Small differences are not a big deal, but if your current fork was at one end of the range and you got a fork at the other end of the range, it could be significant.
