Reynolds Ouzo Comp Carbon Fork with an 1 1/8 Integrated headset--
Will any road fork work with the headset or do I have to buy a special
integrated fork.

Thanks in advance.

What you have is a 1 1/8 inch ITS (hidden) headset attached to your
fork. This means only a 1 1/8 inch 'integrated' fork can be used with
your headset. Headsets are in fact quite inexpensive, so I wouldn't
let them put you off your favourite fork- you can always get a new one
of the right type.

What brought me to this post is that I want to buy an Ouzo fork, and,
provided yours is in good condition and hasn't been cut too short for
my frame, I would like to make you an offer for yours. Maybe even with
the headset.

Email me.

Scratch that- integrated headsets use the top part of the tube they sit
in and the shape of the tube is therefore incompatible with any other
kind and vice versa. It seems I couldn't use your Reynolds as a
result. What a shame. Good luck finding your new forks,

Alan
