It's probably OK, it's not cheap either, 150USD, so, probably will withstand some abuse.

I think kinesis makes superlight cross country forks and cyclocross stuff. Probably not for trials. The weight tells the tale.

uhh yeah... 1.66 lbs!!

I always had good luck with old cro-moly take off forks from bike shops. Many shops have these laying around from when bikes used to come without suspension and people would swap them for a suspension fork. If you can find a old GT dealer they had the best forks. I always picked a fork up for under $40. If I remember correctly the forks that say spinner on the dropouts are the best.
