My bike is a norco six three. I was wondering if a 1.5 head tube would fit on my bike because im looking to get a new fork and i dont want to spend money if it is not going to fit. I have a 1 1/8 head set right now i know i will need a new one if it will fit.

thanks Skyler

You could not run a 1.5" fork if that's what you were wondering.

nope if you have an 1 1/8 steer tube you couldnt run a 1.5, imagine putting a bigger tube through a small hole.

What size head tube does the frame have, any chance of a photo, a lot of 1.5" frames have reducer cups and reducer headsets.

What year is the frame and any chance of a photo of the head tube?

11/8th" standard headtube by the looks of it. No way of getting a 1.5" to fit that. Looks like a nice bike though! so not too bad!
