Hi.
Iam thinking of buying some forks with a tapered steerer tube, My bike has a 1.5 head tube with a headset that runs a 1 1/8 steerer on my old forks.
Iam just wanting to know if I will need to buy a new headset or can I just buy the bottom race to fit 1.5.

    at most a new lower half of a headset. Or depending on the headset some use a 1.5 lower and a special crown race.

    but who knows as you have not provided much info.
