i recently bought a frame and found out my forks are too long for the frame (this was not clear until it started to shift forward when i brake). basically the forks stick out the top a bit (i did not fit the forks or headset) and i have been using a quill stem.
i really don't want to cut the forks as i don't have the time/tools/money/expertise.
would using an ahead stem mean that i would not need to, as they go over the steerer tube instead of inside it and use spacers?
sorry if this has already been asked and for the shoddily articulated question.
