ashtabula fork race

<< < (2/2)

Bmxonaboat:
I've tryed the old race , it fits but not as snug as the other one

oldtired:
when you say 1" is it a true 1" headset ,  as  the 1" headsets are smaller than what is considered a bmx headset , even then there is two?  sizes for those ,   1" was used on smaller expert and mini frames , also road bikes,

  you could shim the new race to fit the the crown on the forks, done this a few times , shimmed the even smaller French size crowns with no problems , bean tins work great for this , a bit more robust than beer tins , used an old stainless pan for the last one i did , which was the French size crown? 

iso head tube with jis fork crown  :tickedoff: :tickedoff:   :LolLolLolLol:
