Morgan Fletcher said:I'm almost done building my first cyclocross bike. The frameset is a
Cannondale 58cm XR800 from maybe five years ago, with a cut-down 1"
threadless steerer. I've got a 1-1/8" Ritchey Comp stem on it with a shim
and a 4mm spacer and a cable hanger for a 1" steerer also acting as a
spacer. (You can't see the 4mm spacer under the flared hanger, but it's
there.) It's a tight fit:http://www.wooljersey.com/gallery/misc/img_9266
Any of you have solutions and/or photos of how you've dealt with this
situation? I will try to find another hanger tomorrow. I guess I just need
a deeper-drop hanger, or one with less adjuster and a shorter cable stop.What I really need is a 1"-steerer (threadless) cyclocross fork with a
220mm or longer steerer. This one's a Kinesis aluminum.
Looks like IRD's is only 1 1/8". 🙁
Sheldon lists 2 different ones..

care of the same problem I was having.

Some people have told me they don't think a fat penguin really embodies
the grace of Linux, which just tells me they have never seen a angry
penguin
charging at them in excess of 100mph. They'd be a lot more careful about
what they say if they had.
