Hello! I'm wondering if it's possible to find a headset for an 1 1/8" head tube that will accept a 1" threadless steerer.
Does anyone know if such a headset exists?
Thanks!

These will go in the frame so you can use a 1" headset and 1" steerer on a 1-1/8" frame.
There are probably headsets that do the reduction without need for the extra parts as well if you search.

Thanks, Dave! I appreciate the link to Jenson, too. I'll do some searching now that I know some better terms to use.
