• 205mm of steerer and the head tube length is 170mm, but i forgot about the headset cups

    If it's a conventional (EC34) headset, you're fucked. 205-170=35, minimum EC34 headset is going to be about 24mm e.g. Cane Creek 10 or 40 with my specific low cover, leaving 11mm for the stem

  • 11mm for a stem should be fine though yeah?
    sort of already knew the answer but I was hoping there had been some futuristic nano bearings invented or something.
    oh well!
    I do have another frame that these forks will fit but not the intended frame and it will mean a lot of faffing about.
    maybe I should just sell them.
    or sell everything and give up cycling altogether.
