cracked steerer

nik young

hi just wanted to know if i can do any thing with my fox float rlc as Ive noticed Ive cracked my steerer Ive used the head doctor to show the crack as i couldn't figure out why the star nut kept slipping up the steerer



so i was just wondering if you can buy a new steerer or do i have to buy a new crown ,steerer etc

thanks for any help

They might still fit a small frame, if you wanted to try selling them after cutting down the cracked section aslong as it isnt damaged
