Heyas 8D,
nice to be back at this forum, just got inspired to get back into my builds and riding.
I have now got 1 1/8 forks on my (newly black
) Morales,
which has a 1" headtube.
I can take some pics soon if anyone wants to see.
So I found some cups with thin enough walls on the bit that jams into the frame,
to let the 1 1/8 Kore forks through.
I also found some bearings, which remain in cages, that fit these.
I had the 1" bottom race bored out and re-annealed to fit the forks.
The top race is also bored out of a 1" top nut.
So that's all. It spins killer,
but time will see if it has enough strength.
So I didn't modify the forks or frame,
which I am happy about.
I will post pics of my 4 bikes including this mod in the next couple of weeks in rides.
Cheers, enjoy the rolling
