by the way, how good is that easton ec90 (the extra lite model)?
There is a test in the german TOUR magazin.
The Easton EC 90slx was the lightest fork with 315g. The tested Scott C1 Aero, not the light one ,was 468g
The measured flex of the schott C1:
side 36,5N/mm, steerer 3968 N/mm, braking 71,3 N/mm, comfort/damping 70,5 N/mm
EC 90 slx:
side 33,8 N/mm, steerer 3154 N/mm, braking 70,3 N/mm, comfort 70,4 N/mm.
The Easton is just a little less stiffer, but a lot lighter than the C1 Aero. So I assume that the Scott light is less rigid than th Ec 90

how stiff is the ec90 slx compared to the regular ec90, and other currently used forks?
ec 90:
side/lateral stiffness 45,5N/mm, steerer 4731 N/mm, comfort 88.1 , braking 87.1 N/mm
storck stiletto: the stiffest one, 369gr
side 51.5, brake 102.3 , comfort 103.1 , steerer 14470 N/mm
reynolds Ouzo pro 43:
side40.1 , brake 78.4 , comfort 80.6 , steerer 3370 .
Time millenium stiff:
side 44.3 brake 68.1 , comfort 67.2 , steerer 12300 N7mm good lateral stiffness and comfortably (comfort - lower N/mm is better)
the EC 90 SLX is a comfortably and stiff enough fork for riders up to 75kg. (in a stíff frame)

where did you get these measurements from? do you have them stiffness measurement for the giant fork that comes with the tcr frameset?
by the way the new storck forks have new weights:
Stiletto Light: Sub 280gram, 1 1/8" Ahead, carbon fork / carbon steerer tube.
Stiletto: Sub 330gram, 1 1/8" Ahead, carbon fork / carbon steerer tube.

No offence but cycling magazine reviews are becoming a joke, you only have to pick up a copy of Cycling Weekly in the U.K. to see what I mean. They are ussually good for using as toilet paper, and I will never base anything on them.

as I said, tests are only good for the moment, but not ideally for the everyday life.
The Scott C1 is one of the best frames you can drive (Stiffness and weight). But one unfortunate fall can break the too thin-walled downtube (1.5mm?)
