FSA Orbit Z 1.5 R v's canecreek double xc flush.
Wondering if anyone has built up a flush headset and a fox 36 VAN? on MEDIUM 6.6 (sure ive seen some)
There has been some chatter about fork Knob clearence problems and I hoped to clarrify the situation.

leaning towards 36 van for my MEDIUM 6.6
thoughts from owners?
thanks

just built up a medium 6.6 with cane creek double XC flush headset and 36RC (not the Van but I think they're pretty damn similar) and have no worries with clearance issues - there is about 5mm or more between the adjustment dials and the downtube.. you'd have a hard time getting the two to knock together the way this bike is built up.

to clarrify my own question for future searches-

No CLEARANCE issues with med 6.6, cane creek double XC flush headset and VAN 36

Not yet a 6.6 owner yet, but I have built a bunch of medium 6.6's with TALAS and Vanilla 36... No clearance issues.
