Cheers chaps, that’s a resounding STW ‘Well…. maybe…. this one time…’ 🙂
I’ve got a 44mm headtube on the Spot, so there’s no problem there, when I get a new set of forks I’ll need to get a new bottom cup, which means the current internal cup will increase the HA by about 0.5 degrees for the same given travel, so I’ll need to knock down my spacers by 5/10mm.
No problems there. I’m thinking I’ll get a set of RCT Pikes when the time comes, I’m sure the main difference will be the damping and the larger dia stanchions, not the steerer tube.
I do remember back in the day everyone going on about all the flex is in the steerer, not the fork.
