Don't know anything about the Alpha Q fork but I've done many thousands of
km on my trusty Colnago Master Olympic with straight (steel) forks and it's
the most comfortable bike I've ever ridden.

Building up a frame so will be needing a fork. One of the least
expensive
forks that I have found is an Alpha Q with straight legs. I'm wondering
if those straight legs are going to pound me into discomfort, or is
there
no appreciable difference in ride between straight and traditional fork
legs?

So as to not start another ride quality issue, especially centering on
tire size,
I ride 700c*25s.

TIA. Ken
