Does anyone make spacers to allow a 1.1/8th" fork to be fitted to a 1.5" (non-tapered) headset? I need one for the top and and one for the bottom headset races.

I've read about them before, but can't find any on the google.

Thanks.

You'll need a new reducer headset

Sure hope do one. Had one for an old set of bombers - straight steerer for a 1.5 headtube patriot

Does the Hope one do the top and bottom headset races?

I'm sure it just does the bottom as the crown race fits onto it.

Hope do a converter for the crown race, but at the top you'll need a new headset cup for the 1 1/8" steerer. That one Ross is selling will do both ends

I have a Hope reducer - £10 posted if you want it.

It was fitted to my Solaris when I was running 1 1/8" forks.

Simply removed it when I got tapered forks.
