No, Saddleback are the current distributors iirc, but he had a stock of them a few years ago & if your struggling he's probably worth trying.

Ventana or cane creek do versions that should fit? No idea if you'll find either in stock though anywhere.

I found myself in (kind of) the same situation with a medium Ritchey P-29 frame and a BOS Dizzy fork. The tapered section of the steerer is just high enough to catch on the compression ring of the headset - quite frustrating, I though this was settled years ago.

I wasn't able to find a riser crown race for 1.5", has such thing ever existed?

Don't think the cane creek will fit as the bearing angle is different I think
