Finally, after what seems like an incredible amount of hunting (and thanks to HUGE assistance from @Scilly Suffolk ) I have a nicer frame for my SingleSpeed (I currently have a horrid modern frame).
The plan is to move everything that I have on the current SingleSpeed bike over to the new frame (apart from the durrelier I was using as a chain tensioner!).
BUT I have a threadless headset on my current set up and as you can see this frame has threaded forks.
I've spotted quill to a-head adapters on ebay,
As far as I can tell half the headset goes in the bottom of the head tube, and the other half goes in the top and then this adapter does.... what? Does it jam into the centre of the top of the fork tube (steerer?) and hold the forks and headset in place? Does my current threadless stem then clamp to this slightly wider part at the stop of this adapter?
Do I saw off the top threaded bit of the current forks?
