HELP! 1-1/8" fork in 1-1/4" frame?

Posted on
  • Right, I have a Giant defy frame and recently bought some Planet X forks with a 1-1/8 steerer. The old forks were tapered so worked fine. The frame has a FSA No.44e fully integrated headset (I think), 1-1/8 bearings at the top and 1-1/4 bearings at the bottom.

    I know there are reducer crown races out there for 1-1/2 to 1-1/8th, anyone got any idea of one for 1-1/4 to 1-1/8? Maybe a crown race with inner diameter of 1-1/8 and outer diameter of 1-1/4? I know problem solvers make some shims for this exact thing but I don't think they work with fully integrated headsets?
    

    OR is there some sort of shim that can slide over the steerer to make the crown race for 1-1/4 fit?
