Bud easier option. And cheaper would be to get a bottom headset cup like this....

 

It will raise the headtube a fraction as the bottom bearing will basicly sit under the headtube and not inside the headtube as it currently does but you will be able to use your existing fork.

 

I knew they did conversions for straight steerer to tapered, never knew they did headset cups from straight to tapered, that's awesome!

Yo ... would this ... http://www.chainreac...rp-prod85845... work on the Inbred frame?

 

just planning for the future here!

 

I'm afraid not, the inbred you have has the traditional 34mm headtube.

 

If you have a 44mm headtube (i.e. 1 1/8" steerer using internal cups) then you can get the external cups to fit the tapered steerer.

You can also try Cyclosport (Tel 021 903 4538) in Kuilsrivier, sure they had ss sprockets and spacers at one stage.

Is it really a SS if its not mcguyver?

[the nerd]

Is it really a SS if there's not at least one mcguyver move?

Anybody got a spare saddle for me? Look what I managed to do to my SS up at Tokai on Sunday.

 

 

Luckily I landed on the back edge of the saddle and not in the middle, could have been a serious injury in a very sensitive spot :blink:
