I have a 2010 Spicy frame. Just looking around for a new headset when I found headsets like this… CRC LINK. Now my spicy frame uses a zero stack internal headset with a straight steerer at the moment So from what I can gather, the top and bottom of the head-tube bulge out to a 44mm width. So with this headset… can I fit a tapered fork to my straight head-tube Spicy? My thought being that, the extra stack height from the headset bottom cup allows most of the taper to be outside of the tube.
I tried googling it and found some rambling from cane creek that came to a similar conclusion. But nothing definitive. Is this a thing that I missed? Or just me wishing?
