nitro question

[Jon.]

Will a Phoenix fork work with scs on a nitro without being cut?

 

[kelz2417]

i use a smx on my nitro with an scs and i use a headset spacer

 

[Steele.M]

Jon, it would work. if you think about it,, pheonix phorx are 1 inch smaller and nitros are half an inch or so it would work. well I think it would.

 

[Jon.]

Yeah that's what I thought

 

[MonkeySteeze]

They made MGP's with a regular sized head tube now so it should fit

 

[Jon.]

No it's still like half an inch shorter.

 

[BenJelinek]

I though it was 1 inch shorter

 

[Derek Seay]

its 1 inch shorter, my 22h crows are 21h on my mgp

 

[Chase Marsh.]

Jon you might need a headset spacer.
A tiny one.
My phoenix forks aren't that much shorter.

 

[mason buckley]

they are .5 in shorter

 

[muse-phoenix]

should work with a spacer cuz they make phoenix forks to fit baby scs so they are small

 

[Brock]

The new ones are exactly 1.5cm smaller which according to google is 0.59 inches for you Americans.

 

[Zaηe]

Just to fuck with people;
Old MGP headtubes were an inch shorter.
And now there still half an inch short of "normal" size.

I think.

Phoenix Phorx works perfectly with Proto scs on my MGP Team Ed without a spacer, Headtube is 75 mm, like the Nitro. The compression bolt is too long for the thread inside the Phorx though, I used a spacer, or you can cut it off a bit. I like this setup!! Oh, and I use a FSA pig dh pro.

 

[BenKowalski.]

would it work nitro phonix forks and hic

 

[sopho]

Hm, could work. Phorx is about 45mm (from headset to top), the shim from the nitro forks is 85mm, so the compression bolt should be 60mm long (or you have to cut the shim). The thread is smaller size than the long nitro bolt. Cant really try, bolt is to short, but it should work

Thank you sopho this actually helped me a lot.
