Azonic doesn't. 1.5 bottom/1 1/8 topcap?
Does anyone make a tapered headlock?
- Thread starter kidwoo

The best system I've used came with an avalanche fork I got in '01-'02...super simple : big long threaded aluminum sleeve-female on both ends, in between two extra long 6mm(I think) bolts....I would assume with this you can just use any top cap you want on top and bottom....probably something you can cob together yourself if you're resourceful.
how about a big washer over the azonic base plate? not too much stack height there...

Hmmm.....that looks just like the woodman I bought a few years ago that broke in about two weeks.
Worth a shot I guess.....
Has anyone seen one of those CKs in person? I'm looking to run a front brake line through the steerer (the main reason I want a headlock), and if that thing is hollow, that would be sweet.
I've got a few 1 1/8" azonic ones laying around....I also may try to cobble something together.

Bar spin time or just so you don't screw up the brake line when bailing?
Little of both.
The video of me trying tailwhips would entertain you.

are you just going to drill a hole in the top and bottom caps to pass the brake line through?
That's what I've always done with azonic 1 1/8" headlocks, so yeah that's what I was thinking.
Unless of course that CK one is hollow.....which it kind of looks like.
Is the CK one kind of light and pinner? It looks like it's probably some thin walled aluminum. I guess my real question is how much do you think would be compromised structurally by putting those holes in the caps?
THE POTTS MOD!
Anyone need any headlocks? I have about 4 floating around, I went back to star fangleds.

Top cap would be w/e but the bottom one is iffy after taking a better look at it..
CK has light and pinner written all over it
Yeah but I'm trying to avoid a normal starnut. This bike is going to get the crap beat out of it way beyond normal dirtjumping stuff.
