The Pace fork has a lockout knob that sticks up further than other forks - rather than put the extra clearance into the frame, we used the thicker base plate - if we swap to, say, the Fox fork, the spacer goes away and the front end is 5mm lower.

The bike looks great! Is there a spacer below the King baseplate to give increased clearance, or is that how the crown on the Pace is designed?
