Probably the best choice for vintage Carbon. Designed by someone who actually knew how the stuff worked and designed it to last not to be a one season throw away. Still pretty light though. I had a 58cm one that weighed around 1400g for the frame.
What happened to the original fork Dan? It should be a 1" threaded number.

What size is it? It looks smaller than the other bikes you've shown, 57 or 58 cm tt from memory
