Gear Talk / carbon fork or steel?

I'm building up a 29er for ultra light touring. I wondered folks opinions about carbon forks vs steel for this type of use. Thanks.

General Discussion / Youth tour on bamboo bikes
« on: May 18, 2010, 06:18:39 pm »
Next month I am taking a group of students from DC to Pittsburgh. We want to tour on bamboo bikes that we make ourselves over the next 5 weeks. We are in need of about 5 late model damaged frames from which we will cut the dropouts, bottom bracket and head tubes. Why late model? B/c I want the kids to have descent bikes to keep when they are done with our 9 day tour. Touring frames or mtn bike frames with disc brake ready rear drop outs would be awesome!
Our group of 12 is about 75% low income and first generation college bound. They are good students and first time cyclists. If you have any suggestions please let me know... thanks,
Todd
