I am putting together a bike for the winter. A nice steel frame with a 1" threaded steerer.
This isn't a purist retro build so I have used a modern 1" threaded headset with cartridge bearings.
The problem is that the steerer tube is only just long enough to take the top nut - there is no space for the hanger's collar.
Can anyone suggest an alternative solution? It would be ideal if there is somehting that would clamp onto the quill stem. I have had a look online and can't see an option.....
