Ive fitted a rigid fork today and love the look of it.
Trouble is even with a low stack headset the (ahead) steerer is coming up around 8-10mm shorter than it ideally should be.
In effect, the stems upper pinch bolt is almost grasping thin air.
Now im sure that im not the first person to be tempted to ride as is.. after all it does up nice and tight. The steerer is steel so can take a bit of added torque, surely?
Who out there would risk it, and how many of you are tutting and raising their eyebrows?
