I'd rather have a designed solution

32
This guy made a spacer for in the frame. Maybe we could get one designed and then 3D print in metal?


I think Airwolf needs to send me a new fork.

Not sure how to get YouTube link to show "Fix a Road Bike Fork that Rubs on the Head Tube" is the name of the video on YouTube.

The spacer I need should be liek this I think

Anyone know what that is called oe where to get such a spacer

38
Hey Tiny - I think the spacer would have the same angles as the built in race so that it works with the bearing - that is the theory but how to find that special spacer...

Trying to build up the fork I think it would fail over the long run...

Hey guys - the 6.5 did not work - scraping between the fork and the frame after first ride. Airwolf has not got back to me so I think I need the 7mm bearing or a race to fit on the fork like this:

1. Anyone have a link for a 40.5MM ID x 49.5MM OD x 7 MM bearing??

2. Anyone know how to size the race / spacer for the fork so I could use the supplied bearings?

I'm in for zero offset post.

41
Jim.de - too bad on that spacer I get the idea of how it would work. I think the 7 is the way to go as my 6.5 worked.

42
Jim.de - too bad - can you add a image of the spacer?

Anyone know where you can get a zero offset seat post for the VB-168?

44
Built - looks AMAZING - test ride was good as well. Light and fast. Will send pics after longer ride.

45
The bearing I ordered - see link above - worked fine. Fork no longer scrapes on bottom.
