I have an older frame that I am bringing back to life. It currently has a 1 inch aluminum threaded fork/headset. If I wanted to pick up a 1 inch threadLESS replacement fork what do I want to look for to insure the handling of the bike is consistant? Are most road forks interchangable or do you need a fork specific to the geometry of your bike?
Not sure if this helps or not, but the frame in question is a Kesterl 200sc from the early 90s. I believe the rake is 4.4 with a head angle of 73.5. The fork I am considering has the following info on its tag.
Is it at all possible to fit a 1 1/8 fork to a 1 inch bike? I am guessing not...but thought I would check as there are a lot more forks available.
Thanks!
