Folks, technical question. I have sold my 2012 Heckler frame (straight 1.125 head tube), and the dude wants to fit a fork that has a 170mm long steerer tube. I didn't check before shipping it off to him. Is there a way of making this work, by using witchcraft and headsets? Frame is a large - and from what I can tell, it only uses external headsets.

Size L has a 4.7" (~ 120mm) head tube. Cane Creek EC headsets have 16mm upper stack height and 12mm lower. So he's working with only 22mm to clamp, maybe less depending on crown race height. That's gonna be tough.

Saddle, bars and stem are from last bike and are on the replacement list. Was thinking of a Chromag Trailmaster, I am totally color blind, would the black or brown look better?
