This is the version for Pro and Expert XL riders on frames with a tapered head tube. If your frame has a 1-1\/8\" to 1.5\" tapered head tube, you need this version. If it has a straight 1-1\/8\" head tube, you need the Pro straight version instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe tapered steerer interface widens at the base from 1-1\/8\" to 1.5\" — that wider base increases stiffness at the head tube junction exactly where steering precision is generated. Combined with our carbon legs, you get a stiffer front end than a straight steerer fork of the same weight. Available in 10mm and 20mm dropout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSteerer:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4mm thick 7005 aluminum, tapered 1-1\/8\" to 1.5\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLegs:\u003c\/strong\u003e Toray carbon fiber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDropouts:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10mm or 20mm alloy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWheel Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLocking System:\u003c\/strong\u003e Integrated M10 — no star nut required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Frames with tapered 1-1\/8\" to 1.5\" head tube only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSelect 10mm or 20mm dropout from dropdown.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich Versus version do I need?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIt depends on your frame's head tube and the axle standard of your front hub:\u003cbr\u003e\n— \u003cstrong\u003eYouth (1\" carbon steerer, 10mm)\u003c\/strong\u003e: Mini and Junior class frames with a 1\" integrated head tube.\u003cbr\u003e\n— \u003cstrong\u003ePro (1-1\/8\" alloy steerer, 10mm or 20mm)\u003c\/strong\u003e: Expert, Expert XL, Pro frames with a straight 1-1\/8\" head tube.\u003cbr\u003e\n— \u003cstrong\u003ePro Tapered (1-1\/8\"–1.5\" alloy steerer, 20mm)\u003c\/strong\u003e: Pro and Cruiser frames with a tapered head tube.\u003cbr\u003e\n— \u003cstrong\u003eCruiser Tapered (24\", 1-1\/8\"–1.5\" alloy steerer, 20mm)\u003c\/strong\u003e: Cruiser class frames with a tapered head tube.\u003cbr\u003e\nIf you're unsure which head tube your frame has, check the spec sheet or call us.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat torque should I use on the locking bolt?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n4–5 Nm recommended. 5.5 Nm is the absolute maximum. Use a torque wrench. If you overtighten it, you'll strip the threads inside the steerer — there's no repair for that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo I need a star nut or expander plug?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nNo. The Versus uses an integrated M10 bolt that threads directly into the steerer tube. No star nut, no expander plug.
