bralk Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 I have the L700 MkII and I find the headband pressure too high. I wonder if the original L700 headband would lessen the pressure as the “arm” of the forks are a straight construction without the bend at the bottom in the MkII model. Any “swithers” between the too models heamdband ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spritzer Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 I've put Mk2 forks on a Mk1 but the pressure has never bothered me. You can bend the arc a bit on these but don't take it too far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bralk Posted November 13, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 Thanks The arc looks like plastic - perhaps warming up with a hair dryer before bending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spritzer Posted November 14, 2023 Report Share Posted November 14, 2023 Yes, they have an identical headband it's not as strong as the 007 arcs which can be bent back and forth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
