A straight 44mm head tube would allow you the option of either using a straight 44mm fork or a tapered fork with a shim at the top, wouldn't it? Or is that a terrible idea.
@edscoble your answer isn't an answer.
Edit 'cos I'm chatting shit. So is 44mm the OD of a 1 1/8" headtube?
If so, would it be possible have a headtube for 1.5" steerer and run tapered forks with a shim at the top (and maybe a shim at the bottom for regular 1 1/8" steerer?).
