    Anyone tried it?
    At least one review said it could be slacker, especially with the shapeshifter for climbing, which made me think of Works Component headsets, or offset bushes.They were all the rage a while ago, do people still use them?

    I know you can use at least one offset bushing as my pal has one in his and a 170mm fork.

    Rides lovely.

    I have been thinking about going slacker on my Strive and did a bit of investigation and came up with this:-

    http://www.workscomponents.co.uk/10-degree-zs44–ec52–tapered-steerer-tube-headset–canyon-fitment-260-p.asp

    If you read the description even though it’s a 1 degree headset it gives a 1.5 degree head angle decrease as it lowers the headset height. If you don’t want to go that slack straight off, it would be worth looking at the offset bushing options….cheaper too.

    I cant claim any knowledge on slackening a Strive but, just fitted a works hs to my bike, they were great to deal with, I suggest you speak to them too
