I found the link on the Wayback Machine site, it was called the Saturn Solution.

Though on MTBR someone suggests it may have been a typo. I looked at another Woodman page and the description is different, it says “Fits 1” forks into 1 1/8” frames”.

I seen on the net as well about a headset that allows you to run a 1 1/8th fork to 1" frame. It was essentially a 1 1/8" headset but reduced down to 1" where it fis into the frame...

Isn't even the smallest amount of flex in the steerer going to make it hit the inside of the headtube?

Post their reply, I’d be interested to see if it is possible to run a 1 1/8” fork in a 1” head tube.
