confused about steerer

[mrkkbb]

Hi Everyone,



Looking to upgrade (replace) my vector 2 fork on my 855.  What steerer diameter do I need?  1.125" or 1"?



Thanks

you can use a 1 and 1/8 steerer.You will have a 1 and 1/8 headset already with spacers to enable the use of the 1 inch steerer on the girvin.You have to buy a new stem and beg borrow or steal a 1 and 1/8 bottom race.

Thanks, for your reply.  I completely forgot about the stem; yet another thing to spend money on.

Cheers
