Hey dudes,

Is it possible to figure out the steerer length without removing a fork from the headset? I've got a Shimano 600 headset in my track frame, and I don't really want to loosen it unless I have to, as I've heard they're really hard to get tight again without a wrench to fit the star-nut.

I'd like to pick up a new fork though, so I don't have to drill the fork that's on there.

Cheers.

yeah. put a ruler next to the bike. measure from the fork crown race to the top of the headset nut. try to be accurate.
