Firestarter Carbon Fork 2019

Post by Mariner »

Can anyone help me out with answers regarding the latest incarnation of the Firestarter Carbon fork non boost version.
Is it a matt or gloss finish? (website says matt)
Does it have lugs for fenders? (website shows lugs)
Al steerer or Carbon? (website looks like carbon)
Best price is from Germany but they are telling me it is gloss finish without lugs and should buy the Cutthroat version which if you look on the Salsa website is a different item entirely.
Zazen - nothing happens next this is it.

As far as I understand it it’s the same fork but the cutthroat fork has internal routing for dynamo plus a light mount, sounds like a win to me :-bd

I woke up this morning but I’m still in the dark

Theyre almost the same. The cutthroat has a larger diameter near the steerer to match up with the cutthroat frame. Still looks fine on my salsa el mariachi with 44mm head tube though
