mack_turtle Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 (edited) Playing around with the fit on my bikes.

mack_turtle Posted September 27, 2020 Author Share Posted September 27, 2020 More specific now: need a 65-70mm mtb stem for 31.8 handlebar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Dang, I thought I had you covered, but it was an 85mm. That's not worthwhile I rekon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I measured wrong...I had a 90mm. BUT! I subsequently found an 80mm (if my plastic vernier is serving me well). It's right on the edge of what you want, but you're welcome to it (for the price of price of picking it up) if no one has a more midling option for you.

mack_turtle Posted September 28, 2020 Author Share Posted September 28, 2020 Thanks Barry. I have 80+90 sts for road bike fitting. My mountain bike seems to fit best with a 70, but the one I have is starting to get pinched in the back and I don't trust it any more.

throet Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I've got a 70mm (slight rise) for 31.8mm bar, but it's missing the steerer tube clamp bolts. Oddly those bolts are oversized and the only ones I could ever find that fit were out of my kid's 24" Jamis stem. It's a no-name stem that was given to me and I'm sure is on the heavy side. Not sure it's worth your trouble picking it up in CP, but you're welcome to have it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
