Ttaskmaster Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 I can't imagine the insurance going up, since this means you stop *better*! Not sure on the taper thing, though. I'd have to measure it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dan28 Posted January 9, 2012 Author Share Posted January 9, 2012 the forks are now on the upper bearing was the same diameter an tapped staight in the lower was slightly bigger there was a slight lip inside the frame that stopped the old cup going in too far this had to be die grinded ( not much maybe 1/4 of millimetre) i also had to get the thread extended on steerer tube pics to follow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
