My G/F has a pinnacle lithium 4 and I was wondering if it'd take my old Recon Solo Air forks which are tapered.

The head tube looks like it'd take a tapered steerer.......

If it wouldn't take a tapered one, would fitting a straight steered fork adversely affect the geometry????

Any thoughts? Cheers!

The HT is 44mm ID so technically you could fit a tapered fork but the stock fork is ~415mm so I'd expect the result to handle pretty badly..

My Mrs was looking at one of these the other day. It was a 700c hybrid one though not sure of exact model it was a lithium. We were amazed with the sizing she struggled years ago to find one with 26 wheels small enough but this with 700 was perfect. Floro yellow too 🙂

The arkose looked bloody lovely too

I've got a lithium 3 the bright yellow one.

Good spec for the price and the geometry is spot on. Sometimes forget I'm not on the MTB and take it off road by accident......

Thanks. Will leave it as it is; a cracking hybrid. Will look for something second hand I think.

I think these bikes are great-my Ramin 4 (now more like a 5 spec-wise) is a hoot and bloody quick even on the rough stuff.

I like the look of the Iroko tho'.......
