It's Goldtec they were made by too (also known as Betd though - run by Jason Carpenter too I believe, but I think they focus on different products...).

The original carbon forks that Giacomo and Gilles used were actually made by Fournalles and would have been stupidly expensive. The Betd forks are the ones Danny butler now uses which have a different looking crown to the Fournalles. Dave Butler told me that Betd have no plans to produce any more of these for general sale, but with a probable price tag aproaching £300 maybe they thought riders pockets wouldn't be quite that deep. Dave actually gets the carbon tubing and replaces the legs himself periodically.

I also have purchased some of those USE forks off Ebay. Flex City, Arizona, I tell you.

my first pair of pace carbon forks were like that as they were like 420mm long!!!!!so everything just went through the legs. and you could pull them apart both dropouts away from each other it was quite funny.

the ones i have now dont do that half as bad but do have a little bit of flex in but only enough to make you think, pace would produce these forks with a bit of help and guidance i rekon they could make a pair of carbon trials forks for around the £200.00 as they could easily change the crown to something stiffer like the old skool pace trials forks akrigg used to ride.

there would have to be alot of interest though.
