    I just got the forks today so you have to be a little patient.
    I have just discovered that I need a new protection plate under the steering bearing.

    if you are using a disc that is bigger than a typh one tou will need an adaptor im having the same trouble with mine i think i will be using stage six caliper and adaptor kit as for the protection plate the shop i use this always comes with the set when i buy the bearings i think there rms ones

    There was no disc or adapter included with the fork. I think the adapter comes with a lager disk, the fork is design to work with the original Typhoon disc.

    I don't think this will fit the NRG wheel, because the disk is not in the same possission as the original Typhoon.

    the easiest thing to do will be to put a typh disc on may look a bit small but will work spot on unless you want big front d on
