|   help with head tube size - if anyone knows | bobcat
Sep 3, 2002 3:15 PM | | i was wondering if the interior diameter of heat tubes got bigger when
the switch was made to 1 1/8" steer tubes, or if the headsets just got smaller
ive seen all different exterior sizes of head tubes for 1 1/8" so i dont know if that is a good indication or not
thanks |

If you've got a quill-type stem and a threaded headset, you'll have to be a little more creative and unscrew the headset locknut, then measure the threaded portion of the stem underneath with calipers.
