From Mathew:
This is my LOOK HSC5 full carbon fork after impact with a tree at about 35km/h. My frame stayed together, thanks to Alloy Lugs (it's a 2003 KX Light). I can nearly guarantee a steel fork would have bent but not failed disastrously. Needless to say, a very expensive replacement is on order. The rest of the bike - absolutely no problem.
