  1. I'm trying to find a headtube reducer that will convert a mtb 1 1/8"
    headtube to accept mtb 1" fork. I saw on danscomp (bmx) website they have
    reducer shims for "1-1/8" to 1" Mini."
    http://www.danscomp.com/cgi-bin/hazel.cgi?action=DETAIL&item=309031 What the
    hell is a "Mini?" Also they have "1" BMX to 1" Mini"
    http://www.danscomp.com/cgi-bin/hazel.cgi?action=DETAIL&item=309030 Huh?

    TIA.

    sell the 1" fork and put the money towards one that fits the frame. 1"
    forks can fetch surprisingly good money because of the die-hards that
    still have 1" frames.

    The "1-1/8" to 1" Mini." might work. BMX 1" headsets fit "American"
    size headtubes. Almost all MTB-ish 1" headsets are "ISO" size. This
    might add a little clarity or confusion, depending:

    1 1/8" to 1" ISO size reducers are available from QBP, which means
    they're available in just about any bike shop in the U.S. Here's what
    they look like:

    Quality Bike Parts has them. Push in ala a HS cup, makes a 1 1/8inch
    headtube accept a 1 inch HS cup. If ya can't find them, call me.
