Janson Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Do you know what the thread size in the forks is Dan? Just out of interest, I cut my steerer about 20 mm and there's still enough thread, but if I wanna go any shorter... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash-Kennard Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 hey guys, ive got the atomz forks (basically the same thing) they come pretty short anyway, but if you do need to cut them its not a problem, i certainly did. just be sure to cut them straight, file away the burr and grease your threads, will all be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Janson, The threads size are 40mm, and the built-in star nut needs at least 16mm in order for it to screw in all the way. you should get away by cutting another 4mm off your forks. I hope this helps, Thanks Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
