MGP Nitro

[R-Dubya]

QUICKLYYYYYY I need some help. How long of a shim will I need if I'm using a regular threadless fork on a Nitro? It seems like the Nitro forks are reeeeally long and therefore have a longer shim. It would be okay this way if I had a long compression bolt, but I only have the puny little ones that are about SCS bolt length. Basically, does anyone know if I'd be better off with a regular HIC shim (tsi shim btw) or an mgp shim if I'm using a Nitro deck with SenioRs?

No the nitro forks are naturally smaller because the headtube is smaller by an inch (I think)
Just use the TSI shim and see how it works, then cut it down if necessary

 

[R-Dubya]

You mean the mgp shim?

 

[JoshNunez]

yeah, that is what i meant

i rode my sr fork on my nitro with a regular HIC shim it should work fine

I don't have any tools to cut it though...I think I'm just gonna keep my tsi shim, hope for the best, and if it's too short use a small spacer (I already have 2 from when I had baby scs), then get a slightly longer shim from TSI some time in the near future.
