so i have a blkmrkt mob with a fox float 32 RLC. i wanna start doing bar spins and such but i cannot rotate the fork on the frame. the rebound and lockout knobs hit on the down tube. anyone have this problem too? any ideas on how to correct it?

im thinking a crown race that is thicker but i dont know where to start lookin.

Does the mob frame have a integrated headset thingy? If so I think your screwed.

Otherwise you can get headsets where the bottom cup adds 5mm, I just can't remember who makes them right now, maybe the cane creek tank??

Marzochi and Rock Shox DJ forks usually have exellent clearence on mob/riot frames. The Mar DJ forks that come on their complete bikes have exellent clearence. Just dont forget to route your front brake cable through the stem cap before finishing the fork install. I find it best to C notch a star fangled nut enough for the cable to slip through then tap the nut into the steer.
