hi all im after a adapter so i can fit my lefty fork to a 1 1/8 head set as im looking in to bilding a hardtail out or my bike dose anyone know were i can get one or have one for sale
Pretty sure it can't be done. Your lefty just won't go into the tube with room for a bearing(if at all). Your other approach is to find a hardtail frame with fat headtube, try here:

You can use the Lefty for all 1 1/8 steerer

Why bother commenting on something you know nothing about?
Ben - For it to work, the length of your headtube + headset must be less than 137mm.

Lloyd from QwertyCycles.co.uk here, Lefty 4 All steerers due back in stock early next week. Use STW10 to get 10% off your next purchase.
If you are looking at getting a Lefty 4 All steerer make sure your Lefty will take one, on some of the older Leftys you can not remove the steertube. They are actually riveted to the lower crown. If in any doubt post a picture.
