Description The Pro Peloton offers a wind cheating blade profile that is strong enough for the biggest sprinters yet fast enough for time trial events. UCI legal. 1 1/8”, 440 g. (uncut steerer). Fits 700c wheels....
Bike Setup: Lemond OCLV/steel with Dura-Ace, Neuvation wheels.
Summary: I found the Ouzo Pro vesion to be "whippy" on high speed rough sections and I'm only a 150 lb rider. The Ouzo Pro Peleton seems to be a more sturdy fork. I replaced the Bontrager fork on my Lemond OCLV/steel road bike with an Ouzo Pro. I all fairness it was a 43 rake and the frame specified a 45 rake. i then replaced that with a 45 Peleton and the handling characteristics and whippiness improved dramatically. You wouldn't think 2mm of rake would make that much difference, but it did.
Strengths: High quality well made fork that is more aero and sturdier than the regular version.
Weaknesses: none
Similar Products Used: Ouzo Pro, Bontrager Race, various aluminium/carbon forks.

Summary: Responsive, predictable, smooth. Dampens vibration fairly well. No noticeable flex on fast turns. Steerer tube is round and precisely 1 1/8". Very well made product. This is more of race fork than a touring, long distance riding fork. This fork has less flex, a little bit less vibration damping than the standard Ouzo Pro version. ( most would not notice.) This fork is probably better suited for heavier riders 180+, or strong sprinters.)
Strengths: Responsive. Smooth ride. Nice finish. High quality, dependable product.
Weaknesses: Me.

Bike Setup: Merckx M3 ti with DA-9 and various wheels.
Summary: Compared with the Look HSC 3 that I replaced, this fork is great (see my review of the Look). It handles exactly as it should and my bike now goes where I point it. It makes the front end feel rock solid but still smooth.
Strengths: Perfect handling. Very solid.
Weaknesses: Weight, price.
