Re-opening an old subject before I sell my Defy.
There was a thread going back many years on this but hey ho technology moves on.
The steerer on Giant carbon is 1 1/4". To my knowledge the only extenders available are to suit 1 1/8"......is this correct?
Two articles I read by "experts" say carbon steerers should never be extended (for several safety reasons).
What puzzles me is that even mid priced ally frames now boast carbon forks (i assume carbon forks = carbon steerer??).
So........
With so many carbon forks fitted I am wondering
A) are carbon steerer extensions now
available?
B) specifically is there a 1 1/4" extender available.
