...a 1 1/8” straight steerer, disc tabs and std spacing for q/r (Or maybe some kind of bolt through if I can convert my hope hub)?

Thanks, looks good, but that price ( I think I’m a bit behind the times with pricing!)

Carbon Cycles / Exotic have some cheaper options. https://www.carboncycles.cc/?s=0&t=0&rb=14&

Houns, is it a Vaya or a Fargo that you have? If it's the 2013 Fargo in turd-brown you can also use a tapered fork if you use an external ec44 1.5" headset cup like this-

Or, since I know you have had a total taste bypass, they're also available in orange-

That will completely open up the choice of carbon forks you can buy (including the carbon tapered steerer brand new unused post mount disc QR gravel bike forks I have for £40 in the classifieds just now 😉 )

Thanks for the replies. borisel what length is the steerer? I’m only doing some back of the fag packet thinking at the moment wondering whether to convert an existing bike (not the Fargo) to something more gravelly, just weighing up how much it’d cost me
