Wanted Alan Cyclo Cross Forks for early 90s frame - 1” steerer diameter / 150mm steerer length

[Fam Allen]

Need these to replace original fork due to seized quill stem.

Can anyone help me get back out riding?

Thanks

If you cut the stem to allow you to get the forks out of the frame you can then use heat to remove the stub of the stem from the steerer. Sacrifices the stem, saves the forks.

Funny you should say that. That’s what I’ve done, but I hadn’t thought about using heat to remove the stub remaining. Think I can get it hot enough with a heat gun or would it need more heat?
