    Hi :) If you use the search feature up top you'll find plenty of good advice in previous threads. Also have a look through the cycling Wiki/FAQs a the top of the page. IMO carbon forks absorb the road buzz and make for a more comfortable ride. That seems a bit of a jump in price for just carbon forks. The drivetrain, etc. may also be of a higher spec...
