No laufing until you've tried one!

With 60mm / 2.35” of travel with progressive spring rate and its sub 990g / 2.18lbs weight, the patent pending Lauf Trail Racer is a unique match with today’s lightweight XC mountain bike frames.

The Lauf TrailRacer provides 60mm of maintenance-free travel from a dozen carbon fiber leaf springs.  More cush than is possible from a rigid fork but far less weight and hassle than a full-blown suspension fork.  It's ideal for the weight-watching XC racer, monster 'crosser, or gravel gobbler- of which I'm none.  Tapered 1 1/8 steerer, post mount native, carbon with white accents, regular stiffness (145lb+).  More info at http://www.laufforks.com/lauf-trail-racer/

Very little use!  (I should have gone for the 'light' springs.)  Sells for $1,010- first $500 takes it.
