My guess to was that perhaps I over tightened the new stem which compromised the integrity over a short time. I will have to check when I get the bike back if the shorter stem was longer but when I changed it out there was equal space when screwing in the top cap.
Unfortunately I didn't any others pics with a closer detail of the crack before I dropped off the bike.
I'm curious to see what Fox will say. Shop says they will look to see if the fork can even be re-built with an average cost around $175. The other option would be that they may offer between 10-40% off a new fork.
What would the right amount of torque be on tightening the stem to the fork?
