Does anyone know of an adaptor made so that I can use a 1" THREADED fork on
a frame with a 1 1/8" Head Tube?? I know there is CK Devolution HS, but it
is a threadless solution, and my fork is threaded.
TIA,
John

Yup. You need a standard 1" threaded headset, which you may already
have, and 1-1/8" to 1" reducing shims for the head tube. They look like

Don't overthink this, it's simple.
Instead of a $125+ special headset, just get the $15 liners
to install a traditional one inch headset in your
revisionist oversized frame.
We have 'em, but then again so do most competent LBS.

Sure-Quality Bike Parts has one, an adapter that slides into the 1 1/8inch
headtube, then you install a 1 inch HS into it. I just bought one for a Moots
so I can use a 1 inch Woundup threaded cross fork-About $25.
