1 1/4 to 1 1/2 taper. I have a nice cane creek I bought for a project, then went with straight steerer fork.Yep, that's right.
Am I right in thinking that the taper is 1 1/5th?
At the moment I'm looking at this which I think will work but will clearly be quite rubbish.

I'm waiting to hear about another frame that I may need this for soon. If not, I'll let you know.
Was it you also on Facebook looking for wheels that I replied to?
