1 inch Headset spacers?

[geetee61]

Guys, Thinking of changing my silver headset spacers for some fancy red ones! Current spacers are 1 inch but can't find any in that size. Will I get away with 1 1/8th? All replies/ advice is appreciated, GAZ.

1"1/8 ok on mine.

I've been running 2 1"1/8 spacers for a while now and they been fine. The headset on mine is a ritchey logic threaded one and the washer that is located between the 2 nuts is 1"1/8 outside diametre so the spacers sit on there nicely.Mind you if you find some red spacers and your silver ones are going begging i'll have them!
