You can use a 1 1/8 to 1" reducer headset , or 1 1/8 to 1" reducer cups with a standard 1 1/8" headset. Do a google search for either, you'll come up with a number of options. Here's one of each: http://www.universalcycles.com/shopping/product_details.php?id=10546&category=502 http://www.universalcycles.com/shopping/product_details.php?id=585
