WTB: 1" Carbon Fork Compression Plug
I have a 1 inch ITM fork with a carbon steerer. These things are a little
thicker walled steerers than others I've used such as the Eastons. The plugs I have will only compress to 0.815" whereas the ID of the ITM fork is 0.778". What has anyone else used that would fit these forks? Will the Reynolds 1" compression plug work? |

I removed one of the wedges and it worked fine. |

I guess the warranty is toast, but my confidence in the carbon steerer is much greater. |
