Anyone know of any other than the Niner RDO (frantically expensive) and the Salsa Cromoto Grande Maxle (heavy)?

Beware - it's not a fork for you if you weight more than 350 lbs

Not sure that's going to be cheaper than the Niner fork, either...

I had hoped one of the manufacturers who make rigid forks (eg. White Bros, Shimano disguised as Pro) would have looked at this, as there is a demand.

Are 'rigid' forks that flexible they would benefit from a through axle or is it just so you can use the same wheels?

Partly to allow same wheels (though eg. Hopes this isn't a problem as it's just a case of changing end caps), and partly to assuage worries about wheel ejection.
A correctly fitted wheel doesn't eject, full stop!
