EISH WRONG STEERER TUBE FOR MY BIKE.

Yup that is what i was implying. If your frame has a 49.6mm or 55mm diameter (internal) head tube, then the lower cup will be easy to find. Most bikes shops should have in stock.

 

However, if you're running a 44mm, then you'll need to do what ben did and get a headset where the lower bearing sits outboard in order to accommodate 1.5". These are harder to find. I know nuke proof made one (available from crc).

 

And it just so happens that mine has become available so depending on the ID of your frame it may be an option for you!
