Theyre very light forks, not particularly strong though. I believe earlier ones with a bonded steerer were weaker, have a look see up through the crown and you should see if its welded or bonded. I had some (bonded) ones and never had any strength problems with them, never did anything to front though, main problem I had with them was the dropouts couldnt hold the wheel in with a disk, no matter what I tried the wheel would pull out of square as soon as the brake was applied hard

As youre still learning they should be fine for a while

Mine on the old boa, last seen on danny kearns bike! :D :D
