Title: Crosslink Standard or Tall for my Razorback?
Post by: DCepp on April 07, 2005, 04:49:47 am

The steerer tube is 124mm and the standard fits 90-130mm steerer tubes. I am answering my own question but would a Tall Crosslink work better? Check out the links for the Ebay auction:

EdiscountBike.com sells either long or standard, if your head tube falls into the standard size then I would suggest using the standard, I have a 96 Girvin and my headtube measured 132mm and my LBS used the long. The steertubes on these forks could not be cut, you have to use spacers to make up the difference not sure about the ones you have showed here. Here is a link with installation instructions http://images.auctionworks.com/hi/56/55673/crosslinkinstall.2.jpg

Good luck.
