1" fork to 1 1/8" threadless forks conversion

<< < (2/5) > >>

fugazi:
There's a few ways of doing this, just watch which headset cups You use as some of them won't go over the 1 1/8 steerer. ED I've got some 1" threadless forks, a heavy duty 1" aheadset & a shim to use a 1 1/8 stem if You want to go that way  :daumenhoch:

Dark Diggler:
cool that, but why? I havent adjusted my 1" beartrap since I installed it on my Holmes and my Challenger has raced for 3 years with hardly any adjustment to its 1" beartrap, they both have the seatclamp style headlocks.

Spen69:
Like we chatted about last night Ed, this is my next LLP innovation plannned for my Badlander after the "current" development is sorted :LolLolLolLol:

it more about running a newer type stem on threadless forls than the headset Si - just trying to keep one foot in the past with an eye on the future  :angel: or the other way round  ::)
