What a bummer 

Inspired Hex features a integrated headset, so the top part below the stem is just the top spacer of the headset.  Inspired comes with a tall cone headset spacer from the factory. You should be able to find a short stack headset spacer like I have from your local bikeshop. They come in different internal designs for different headsets so you may have to try a few to make sure it fits the headset in the Hex without resistance. This will then allow you to run a shorter steertube. Doing this and replacing with carbon spacers as pictured saves you free 20 grams at the stock Inspired fork steertube length 😄.  As for the viability of those forks for street trials riding, I think it depends on how big you are going to be riding as the weight saving from those carbon forks do not come free. I believe there is a photo of the snapped WAW carbon forks on a Hex on Instagram from one of the UK riders. Forks is one of the few parts I do not mind going heavier but rugged on a bike.   

Hi there, unfortunately today i did snap my fork doing endo.No injury for me,i was lucky.So i started looking for new fork with PM disk mount but it is seems that there is nothing similar.Any suggestions about where to look for? I have old Saracen Mad team urban fork and it is look it is going to save me but maybe i should change the headset because crown of the fork did sink too much into the head tube.Also, dropouts does not match with hub bolts(Echo disk hub)but removing a bit material of should do the trick.Headset bother me more. Anyone have had same or similar issue with? I mean to put different fork on Echo Pure frame. Thank you in advance.

Just get an Extension carbon fork. 15mm through and the steerer is the correct length. The WAW is too many compromises for street.

Can anyone help me with the headset hack to fit Crewkerz Carbon forks to the 2024 hex ?  Ali did it last year with a lower clamp height stem which I didn’t like . Ive just seen this Guy in the RPM in Guildford videos with a nicer set-up and the stock trialtech stem. Anyone know what headset he’s running or advice to make up for the 40 mm difference in headtube length btwn Inspired and Crewkerz forks ?
