can anyone tell me if a Blur LT has a tapered headtube or is it only the carbon version that does?
cheers

FAQ says yes, without reference to frame material
good spot - I'd actually been looking at an older one on ebay and it seemed to have a straight headtube. then I read a review of the carbon one that seemed to suggest the LT2 (alu) was still 1 1/8 while carbon was tapered
just need to know when it changed now to make sure I dont make the mistake I made when getting the forks
hmm link to bikeradar review from 2010, says they wish it had a tapered headtube.. like the carbon version. So all of a sudden, did the alloy version have a tapered headtube at all?
that was the review that led me to ask the question - and from looking a the frame on ebay that didnt seem to have a tapered tube!

That is definitely not tapered.
LT is straight, LT2 isn't, the archive FAQ is a muddle of the two models
more to the point - where can I get an LTc frame for £800?
