Hey I work at a bike shop. This is actually totally okay to do
So long as your okay with kissing the dirt at 30 mph
This is pretty dangerous cause your relying on that small shim to hold the fork I’m not convinced
It's been a thing for a long time don't worry
If its metal its alright
it's safe for casual ride 😂
Naa this has been proven already I personally have done 3 bikes like this been through hell no issues.
My e-bike came from the shop with a straight fork in a tapered frame... I rode it for over 3000 miles and not had any problem.
For crying out loud... please don't do this!!!!!
Don’t do this if you value your face. Get either a reducing lower headset cup and smaller bearing or a legit crown race to increase the bearing size.
Pro tip, use the right fork style for any given frame, not worth the risk/hassle
If the converter is a Crown race pounded onto the steerer tube of the fork I would say it’s legit. Plastic is definitely not great crown race material
Nobody does this because getting a decent straight fork is actually pretty hard to do. Just buy a tapered fork.
So I believe that there are bigger bearings for your headset that can convert from tapered to straight by using consistently shaped holes on the inside of the bearings
Wow! Cuánto que aprendí!!!
Where can I get this converter?
This is not how its done completely false thats just a crown raise of a tapered fork but you can get bearings for taper to straight
What if frame is non tapared and fork is tapared what bearing totally fit?
u can use converter like ztto 4444t
Only for casual ride while following your 3yo kid 😂
so did u use a tappered headset or straight one?
"If you are trying to fit a straight fork into a tapered frame...." get help. Don't wait until your friends stage an intervention...
I have that gt
Music?
Soviet connection. Gta 4 theme song
What size? Shyt vid 😔
