[MENTION=136384]unterhausen[/MENTION].....thank you. yes, i will. you just wouldn't believe how difficult it is to find a steer tube for this fork. well, maybe you would.

oh, since we're on the subject, i have wondered if i couldn't just use a regular steer tube....one otherwise meant for brazing into a regular fork....and shimming it to fit in the crown. again, the steer tube clamps in. if this would work, then those tubes are cheap (nova cycles, etc) and i could get the exact length i want. i wouldn't mind having a few cm's of spacers to be able to get a regular quill in the mix with the bars nice and high
