Does anyone know the steerer size or if tapered etc on the original Fox 36 Talas forks it came with? It's been returned without them after theft.

Thanks

  You should be able to see if the headtube is tapered.
  
  But in 2009 I doubt it.

  Measure the headtube and add a bit for the stack height of your preferred headset, and a tiny bit more for a spacer or two.

  Thank you. I've never built a bike back up before so I didn't want to buy the wrong bits. Now just to decide on which forks to replace them with
