Default 7.25" steerer tube on IH 6point?

i currently run an 8" steerer tube setup and i don't see why a 7.25" wouldn't work. all i would need to do is remove 1 spacer. looking for any info from IH gurus or anyone else that would know.

If you dont mind your bars being a little lower you can always get a stem to raise it up you might not need to pull that many spacers

The key is that the steerer be at least up to the center line of the top bolt on the stem where it clamps the steerer.

6POINT has an integrated headset which makes the stack height pretty low. You should be fine.
