Strengths: High quality well made fork that is more aero and sturdier than the regular version.Weaknesses: noneBottom Line: 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: Responsive. Smooth ride. Nice finish. High quality, dependable product.Weaknesses: Me.Bottom Line: 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: Perfect handling. Very solid.Weaknesses: Weight, price.Bottom Line: 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.
