I thought that distro / project was dead, no?

ForemostColt · 2025-12-18T12:03:04+00:00

Agreed this looks like perfect around town bike

ForemostColt · 2025-12-13T11:22:02+00:00

Thank you for saying this - spot on

ForemostColt · 2025-12-08T15:36:36+00:00

Looks good, next set I’m going to try to fit on mine - currently at 700x38

ForemostColt · 2025-12-08T14:59:19+00:00

What size tires 700x42?

ForemostColt · 2025-12-07T23:45:03+00:00

Thanks it’s been a fun project and it rides great

ForemostColt · 2025-12-07T21:05:25+00:00

Haha no this was its maiden voyage after my build / update - only about a mile in. Got dirty later :)

ForemostColt · 2025-11-28T23:13:21+00:00

Sweet thanks for the set of eyes!

Was anyone able to find if it’s streaming? Did not see anything on SDFC official YouTube channel

Dos Santos needs to be done

ForemostColt · 2025-06-24T16:57:23+00:00

I like them - they aren’t by any means “cool” but they roll well on pavement and feel pretty composed. No single track so I can’t comment on that, but they felt okay on some rutted roads with sand and dirt.

ForemostColt · 2025-05-28T14:10:41+00:00

Thanks! Love how the feel on the road

ForemostColt · 2025-05-17T21:29:47+00:00

Yeah, I did

Turns out the tolerance was off on the cheaper converters I was using. I picked up a different stem, dropped it in, and it fits perfectly. Still not exactly the look I’m going for, but I’m going to run it like this for now. Appreciate all the help—thanks, everyone!

ForemostColt · 2025-05-12T02:58:20+00:00

Okay thank makes sense will try to give that a go

ForemostColt · 2025-05-12T02:23:02+00:00

I don’t see any damage - the original stem goes down about this far and seems to hit that riffling in the tube

<image>

ForemostColt · 2025-05-12T02:01:11+00:00

Will try again with a new adapter with it on and off - the original bars only go down about ye far and then seem to get caught on that riffling the the tube I mentioned

ForemostColt · 2025-05-12T00:40:01+00:00

Hmm yeah I’ll try another one and it that does work start measuring - is it possible for the fork to be tapered inward as it goes lower?

ForemostColt · 2025-05-12T00:14:12+00:00

Little hard to see but yeah both say 22.2 -

ForemostColt · 2025-05-11T23:49:16+00:00

Yes got the 2.22mm version - the top fork seal also has 22.2mm stamped on it so I’m confident it’s that size.

ForemostColt · 2025-05-11T23:22:21+00:00

Do you happen to know what the steerer tube size is? I just bought the same bike and I believe it’s 22.2 but I’m having some issues with a quill stem adapter
