@Thrasher Hah thanks, thats pretty much what I'm trying to replace. I have a Wolf CL fork made by true temper with a steel steerer. They are known to corrode and snap. There was also a recall on the carbon steerer version as they had to have an aluminium shim glued in that extended past the top headset bearing. Not sure I'd trust it.

This thread might have just saved me from a nasty accident... I have the alpha Q forks with carbon steerer on my winter bike - they do not have the alloy shim inside the steerer and currently have an expander plug. I have clearly been very lucky for the past 5-6 years. They will be removed forthwith...

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
