  1. Hi,

    I replaced the fork of a bike (changed from Rock-Shox Dart100 to Rock-Shox
    Pike). Now when I try to turn the steerer backwards, the U-Turn (on the left)
    and flood-gate adjuster (on the right) hit the lower tube of the frame.
    Does anybody know a solution to this problem? I thought of placing a 30mm diam.
    spacer (3mm height) between the lower headset cone and the forks crown...

    Thank you for any suggestions, Chris

    Some HS makers have a lower race extender for this very problem. Chris
    King for example.

    Don't turn the steerer backwards.
