Replacement steerer tube and stanchions for suspension forks
Fork steerer tubes that are cut too short or scratched stanchions are often a death sentence for suspension forks. ND Tuned now saves the lives of such forks with interchangeable spare parts.

Anyone who buys a new frame and wants to reinstall the old suspension fork is often faced with a problem: the steerer tube is too short! In the past, this diagnosis often meant the end for the affected suspension fork. ND Tuned from Portugal now offers replacement fork steerer tubes for Fox and Rockshox forks.

If you need a longer steerer tube, simply send your suspension fork to the German sales partner MRC Trading. The new aluminium steerer tube is pressed there for 80 euros. Scratched stanchions can also be replaced individually. For lightweight fans, there is also an optional carbon steerer tube for Fox 32 Step Cast forks. For 190 euros, you save around 45 grams.

If you want to install a current fork with a tapered steerer tube in an old frame with a continuous 1.125-inch head tube, you can also have this converted at MRC Trading. And Yeti riders who have problems with their Switch-Infiniy-Link can get new sliding rods from ND-Tuned for 200 euros. The original spare part from Fox is considerably more expensive.
