  • I've just been thinking about my fork predicament. Seeing as 1" threaded forks are a lot more common than 1" threadless forks, is there any reason I couldn't buy some threaded forks with a longish steerer and cut them down to below the thread, making them into threadless forks? The head tube on my Donohue is pretty small so it shouldn't be too hard to find forks with a long enough steerer to do this.

  • keep the threads and use the top part of a threaded headset above the stem to preload the headset.
    Probably lighter than star nut and top cap.

  • But you'd end up with a massive stack above the stem or be clamping on the threaded part of the steerer surely?
