I have a Fantom 29er that I would like to convert over to a rigid fork. Its 1 1/8 straight/threadless. Disk brakes. 9mm quick release....and I believe the current frok which is a SR Suntour XCT has 100mm of travel. Any ideas of what I should go with?

Thanks!

Depends on axle to crown measurement really. I'd probably look into a Surly steel front fork, Krampus or Karate Monkey would be good, ECR or Ogre would probably work as well but are likely stiffer. Either that or the older Niner carbon forks would work as well but they're pretty pricey..
