Has anyone had the chance to compare the standard S-Works Tarmac Fork to that on the SL? Ride feel, noodliness, etc.
Its a lot lighter and Specialized are about to sell it for £180...

Team bike last year was a '05 S-Works Tarmac this year '06 S-works Tarmac SL. Honestly the '05 fork seems more harsh but the '06 seems stiffer. Not certain how that is possible but the '06 package is much better and the fork seems to play a significant role. Sorry haven't ridden the different forks on the same frame so observations may be skewed by frame differences.
