I just picked up a Guerciotti frame because I happen to have a matching Guerc' fork. Unfortunately,
the fork steerer tube seems ever-so-slightly too small.
The frame head tube is 127mm. The fork steerer is 150 which is about 15mm too short for a
standard headset.
Can a framebuilder replace the steerer tube on my fork, or braze on an extension? How much should
this cost?
Alternatively, what about machining off 7mm off both the top and bottom of the head tube?
Finally, does anyone sell a headset with extra-short stack height.
Obviously, I am interested in safety here. The fork is what keeps your chin off the ground. Let me
know your thoughts.
