Does anyone know if dtSwiss bought PACE, or bought the fork and shock division?

I have a certain 420mm rigid Pace fork I really like, and it looks like dtSwiss probably acquired that part of the biz and is only making the 440mm version.

Thanks.

Pace ownership (http://twentynineinches.com/2007/09/09/dt-swiss-29er-fork-sneak-peak/)

420mm A-to-C carbon fork option (http://twentynineinches.com/2008/03/12/origin-8-does-white-on-a-carbon-fork/).

Thanks. Do you like the fork? The Pace is/was reinforced with Ti to support my 175 somewhat clumsy pounds. How does it hold up to moderate abuse (2 foot or less drops, 18 inch bunny hops, etc.)?

Sorry, I can't help you there, I don't own any carbon forks.
