Hi,
My partner's Giant Terrago Disc MTB (2008) needs the forks (Suntour XTR) replacing, because they're cr*p (and possibly dangerous now!)
I'm looking at getting these:

The spec for the Giant is here, but no details re. steerer size:

How can I tell whether they will fit the giant, ie steerer length etc?
Cheers
Kevin

Standard 1 1/8" steerer, it will be over 200mm long if it is brand new.
Just check that it hasn't been cut before you buy.0 -
1 1/8th diameter and whatever length is required for the build you have.
there is a FAQ on how to measure the steerer length."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
