What type of fork do you have? Is there any ay to get a zero stack or shorter stack height headset? What frame is it?
Sounds expensive, better hit yourself with a tape measure!
fixed
tape measures are for amateurs...eye-balling it is for pro's
i always worry that ill cut it too short too even after measuring twice...i usually keep my steerer tube a couple of inches longer. it helps when swapping frames or if i wanna sell it.I think i might need glasses
Yes, but they come as a steerer/crown/uppers assembly.Does anybody know it RockShox even does replacement steer tubs?
i bet thats nice and cheap. at least $20Yes, but they come as a steerer/crown/uppers assembly.

'bout $250...
Then buy another one and sell the shorter one for a smaller loss??? I've done this before too. Fortunately it was for an old Judy SL and the upper/steerer assembly was pretty cheap.Plus installation. i'll drop $300 easily. I'm so pissed.
Well I paid $317 with free shipping.
Good idea. But the magic question is:Then buy another one and sell the shorter one for a smaller loss??? I've done this before too. Fortunately it was for an old Judy SL and the upper/steerer assembly was pretty cheap.
and are there other options..like new headset/stemGood idea. But the magic question is:
How long is the steerer now?
I get the feeling we are not talking about 7.75 inches when it should have 7.9. I am guessing a 6.5 inch steerer.and are there other options..like new headset/stem
lol....in that caseI get the feeling we are not talking about 7.75 inches when it should have 7.9. I am guessing a 6.5 inch steerer.
Might as well buy a new fork and have a lot of spare parts, you'll also have your bike up and running faster.
well how much was the fork new?...not what you paid for it, but original msrp?True.
I just don't get why that part is SO expensive.

Got a pic ?? I'm interested to see how "too short" it is.I cut my forks WAY to short. What do I do now?
