The Angle Spacer (fork crown race) for 1 1/8" forks allows you to modernize and fine-tune your bike's geometry.It's possible to slacken the head angle by half a degree (-0.5°), extracting even more performance from your bike on steep and challenging descents!The spacer replaces the conventional fork crown race and is mounted between the fork crown and the headset. The Angle Spacer can be used with any headset that uses 45° bearings. (45° bearings are used in 95% of all bikes.) CAUTION: Not compatible with IS (fully integrated) or EC (external cup) headsets!- Slackens head angles by half a degree (i.e. convert a 65 degree head angle to 64.5) - Aluminum spacer sits between the fork crown and headset on a tapered fork - For use with headsets with 45 degree bearing race - A slacker head angle makes bike more stable while descending - 19g
