Just to pick some brains on forks...
I've measured my frame which gives headtube length of 157mm (with 165mm to bottom of the cup it has fitted)
I was looking at these forks kingkong recommended http://www.freemanscycles.co.uk/product2.asp?product_id=1235&pname=Steel%20Forks
They have 254mm steerer of which 152mm is threaded. So this would be too long for me right? or does one always cut them down?
I haven't got a headset yet which I understand makes some difference... but not 10cm right?
