Does anyone have a picture of their straight steerer monocoque fork fitted, specifically of the crown race/HT area?

I had one a while back on a frame that ran an internal 1 1/8" headset and the area of the fork that takes the crown race was wider that the HT leaving a "ledge" and subsequently looking a bit ****y.

Looking at another but OO couldn't confirm the diameter of that part of the fork for me to compare with my std Hope headset 🙁 hence the question.

Thank you in advance 🙂

I'm fitting one now (on my daughter's bike, lucky lass). The top of the crown is circular, and 12mmish wider than the steerer on each side.

I'd have thought it would be a 56mm diameter at that point.

What Brant sed - maybe 54ish if you're being generous.
