Hi all
I've done a search but can't find a definitive answer as to the method needed.
I have a good friend who's a toolmaker so has a workshop to get it done with whatever tools might be needed.
I'm looking to swap a threaded 1 ⅛" steerer for a non-threaded (I need longer, and chopping the threaded portion off leaves it too short), so is it a case of pressing out the original (how exactly?) then re-fitting the replacement?
Is there a retaining clip/washer involved? If so, can that be re-used or is a new one required?
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: It's a Manitou 2 crown/steerer
