HI Folks
Purchased a new frame thinking I could fit my current Lyric Fork with a CSU steerer length of 180mm. The website claims 135mm head tube height but doesn't take into consideration the headset and headset cap which added another 15mm. So, with my standard 40mm stack height with my stem left me about 10mm too short. In an attempt to rectify the situation I have purchased a shorter stack height stem but this leaves the CSU steerer approximately 2mm short of the top of the stem. See picture....
The top bolt of the stem is below the top of the CSU steerer by about 3mm....
Would you trust it?
Please don't tell me to purchase a new CSU.......that I can't afford.....
Regards
