But, altering the bike's forks will ruin the bike's geometry and will result in stability problems. I would recommend you not to mess with the forks !"The trouble with the rat race is that even if you win, you're still a rat" - Lily TomlinComment

if iam wright when u need to change the fork (which is generally said)
in terms inner tubes, tee stem & clamp (related acces) and outer tube/fork
these are the things to be changed.
the crucial part is to select the right tee stem & their height/length of the stem (spindle)
the clamp which is used to hold the handle bar to be chosen right which is the deciding factor for reach & ht. if the tee stem & the clamp is not selected correctly definitely u will ruin the geometry of the bike trail, rake angle offset from steering axis etcccccComment

AFAIK raising fork by 1 or 2mm wont hamper handling in anyway. I have raised my Unicorn's fork by half inch and it hasn't created any problem to me.
To raise the fork we get some metal bushes, this is what the mech told me.
But i am pretty happy with it
Bushes cost about 150rs
+ fork oil has to be changed.
