1" to 1-1/8" fork (possible?)

Pilgrim · 2007-11-08T01:07:12+00:00

I have an old frame that was equipped with a fork that had a 1" steerer. I am curious if I can install a 1-1/8" fork in the same headtube. The races for the bearings seem to be pressed into the tube. If i can remove these can I press in a new headset? Also does that job require special tools, or knowledge? Pilgrim
