Hope someone can help, looking to upgrade forks on my Cannondale Trail HT which has 1.5" steerer, however, the forks I would like are 1-1/8", is there an adaptor that can be used to fit them????
Any pointers appreciated.

You'll have to buy a 1.5 to 1 1/8 reducer headset (if one isn't already fitted)Santa Cruz 5010C

you will need a newcrownrace for your headset, or maybe replace the headset. canecreek chrisking hope nukeproof all make them...
i have 2 canecreek ones on the santacruz and the chromag. both are tapered headtubes so reduced to fit my 1/18 forks...
just be sure you get the right one for the frame ie integrated semi integrated ect...www.bearbackbiking.com

I used Marzocchi reducer cups and fitted a standard 1/8" headset, nice & stiff not had any problems since fitting it.

Aye, various ways to do it. Hope make a very good reducer headset. Superstar do one as well which looks good. You need to be careful to get the right one though.Uncompromising extremist0
