Has anyone installed these? I saw it came with I believe a new bearing race, do I have to remove the old one from the frame and install this one or can I just use the original?

Just wanted to make sure the tapers weren’t different or something.

Thanks!

I didn’t use the provided race. 20 hrs. And no problems. Did like the 20 degree offset. Turns even better. I know what the math and trail diagrams show but less offset = better turning. Try it.

Just an observation, but won't you have to take the top clamp back off to get the clutch hose routed right?

Correct. Yes I dropped the left fork tube down and brought it through correctly.
Of course after I had torqued everything and marked the bolts lol.
