ubiquitous Posted May 12, 2007 Report Share Posted May 12, 2007 What are you trying to replace the crown with? A genuine crown, or another rep crown? Most rep crowns will work... But a genuine will not, as the inner diameter (and genuine tube) is larger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freddy333 Posted May 12, 2007 Report Share Posted May 12, 2007 In another post, Ubi posted a photo showing a gen Triplock crown next to a rep. The main problem, as and you can see from the comparison photos, is that the shaft that runs through the center of the rep crown (what the stem screws into) is narrower than the shaft in the gen crown. And the hole in the rep crown tube is made to fit the narrower shaft of the rep crown and the wider shaft in the gen will not go through the rep crown tube. So if you want to upgrade the crown to a gen, you will need to replace the crown tube also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
