I'd like to get something new to replace it but I'm not very familiar with this type of setup. What would you guys recommend for a 1" steerer tube? Threaded? Threadless?
I'd really appreciate any advice!
Also, which specifications geometry-wise would I need to order an appropriate replacement?
You need to match close to the fork rake and the axle-crown length to keep the geometry the same. Are you going carbon or steel? You will also need to make sure you are getting the right length steer tube. Show us a pic of that bike!
