I recently pulled apart the headset on my bike, assuming that it was a 1" threaded headset. However through further examination and many measurements it seems as though I have a 1 1/8" threaded headset. The steertube measured 1 1/16" respectively. I'd never heard of such a thing until I decided to look them up and see, and sure enough, rare as they are they do exist.
My question is this,
Would I be correct in assuming that due to the fact that I have a 1 1/8" headtube diameter, that I may utilize a fork built for a 1 1/8" headset and just do a total conversion from threaded to threadless?
