CRF Lower Fork Tube Diameter?

soopah noviss
I want to put an O-ring on my lower fork tube to gauge travel. What’s the diameter on the newer 49mm forks the late model CRFs come with?

Yes, I’m aware that a zip tie will work but I want to use an O-ring. Thanks, guys.

Nahh i had the same confusion once upon a time. If you get a set of calipers and measure the outer tube, its like 10-12mm bigger than inner tube depending on position (upper and lower clamp area) on the outer tube.

I personally use an o-ring, but it's not like the zip tie slides up and down. It only gets pushed down one time. Even if you go deeper into the stroke on the next hit it just gets pushed down a little further. No harm.
