    did they get rid of the 28.6 steerer version? I take it this one doesn't have 7 degree offset

    That's what I though I had had in the past - one of those for straight blades. I have three of those crowns like you linked here. Thanks, tho! - Garro.

    Hey Steve:

    Closest thing I see is the LC23 from Ceeway. It only gives you 38mm of clearance, but if that is enough, it gives you everything else. The other option is to convert the LC37 to 28.6. If you are interested in that route, we can help. Drop me an E-mail. We do it all the time.

    FWIW, I was looking for the same thing awhile ago and I belive Peter (Ceeway) told me Everest didn't make the 7 degree CX crown in 28.6.
    Let us know what you find dude!

    Hi Tom, the LC37 is a curved blade crown
    no need to convert to 28.6
    when the LC 33 is the same crown as a LC37 but with 28.6 steerer.
    I got a couple of them here.

    I know no LC33 type crowns with 25.4 or 28.6 steerer for straight blades.

    Yep. Spent hours & hours looking at castings yesterday. It's either 40mm blade to blade & 1" ST or 60mm x 1.125". That's the way she rolls. I think I now know every crown made currently :{ - Garro.

    Brent Steelman had used that crown on his cross frames but just thought they may have been available at some point. Maybe he was modifying them as well.

    I was thinking about doing some of my own and would be very interested to see how they come out.

    Send the LC37 to TK and let him/Jeff work their magic. Makes for a uber-stiff but still wicked light cross fork.

    Steve,
    I "think" I have a one. I know I have a 28.6, but I'm not sure it's the straight blade crown. I'll check tonight if you like.
