TT/XT 500 question
« on: April 09, 2009, 08:03:24 pm »
can any one tell me the width of the triple clamps/forks on the TT/XT 500?

eg the inside width of between the chrome legs. from that i can add on 36mm and that will give me the center to center spacing. thanks!

I'll try and measure the width this weekend, not sure when though. I need to get a bike out from under the house. None of my race bikes use standard clamps
I have both types here, inline forks and offset. I don't think there is any difference as they both use the same front wheel.
