I'm thinking about taking the plunge and getting a lightweight fork for my 26er. I need something available with a 15mm axle and a tapered steerer.

Suggestions?

RS Sid would be a good choice. I would run the Extralite, CarbonTi or Shift up thru axles to save weight over the 72 gram Maxle.
Actual weight of Sid World Cup Carbon Motion Control with un-cut 265mm Tapered steer, 120mm travel, 15mm TA = 1359 grams.
