Hey all,
Just got hold of another frame after realising my 18" was a tad small, and gone up to a 19.5. According to the sizes given before hand the 5" steerer tube would have left me with enough room for about 1 spacer plus the headset etc. This frame however takes a traditional external headset so I'm left with next to no room for a headset let alone a spacer, and the headtube is actually a little bigger than 5"
Last thing I want to do is have to buy a new set of forks (currently with 7" steerer – which allowed for 2 spacers on the old frame) so what if – if any, options do I have? Lower stack stem perhaps – the Ritchey WCS one on it is 41mm high.
I'll go take a pic in a mo.
Thanks in advance!
