head tube extension
      12/22/03 09:00 PM (162.15.70.67)

Apparently the OP is getting the headtube extension, so he may not need alot of spacers. However, the "general rule" is if you have a carbon steerer tube fork, you should only use 1 cm of head tube spacers for a 1" headtube. If you use 1 and 1/8" headtube, you can use a bit more like 1.25 cm.

For another "view" on why you should use 1" headtube, read here:
