Headset help ! Now sorted

(1/4) > >>

80s bmx:
Started to build my sons bike today and had nothing but trouble trying to fit cups. Dremmel helped in the end but the problem I now have is that the fork stem is to short. Or am I making a school boy error here, wrong headset ?

Head tube length: 103mm without cups
Fork stem: 127mm

Any suggestions ?

NORTY40:
Looks to me like those forks have been cut down  :-\

80s bmx:
Your right norty, iv just spoke to a seller in America who has these forks and his are 5.25" and my fork stem is just over 5 "  :'(

Devilock:
Yeah you can clearly see that...

Did you see them prior to purchase?!

80s bmx:
^ no mate it was an eBay purchase.
Just put it together roughly to begin with and it looked long enough.
