As long as you're not talking about one of the new tapered I805 forks, you can use it on any frame having a 1 1/8" head tube. It will look wacky due to the oversized crown but it can be done without any issues.

Yea, I didn't realize that it would look weird when i posted this -- I just was curious since i have a tapered i805 which i picked up from you around xmas

Bike is gone and have parts left over to make a new bike minus the frame.

Wait, if it's tapered you're going to likewise need a frame with a tapered headtube.
