Have a PACE 1" one piece stem fitted to the fabled purple F2.
Now I'm convinced that the length of the stem steerer is for an 18" and not a 19" - hence the serious lack of steerer that's inserted into the crown of the RC35. See pic below:
Now this aesthetically looks ok but is pretty dangerous to ride and its bothering me now. So was thinking of simply reducing the stack height of the top headset race (which unfortunately happens to be one of the cool milled out Mavic ones that Pace did at the time prior to ahead stems). If I reduce the top headset race to a lower stack height Ahead-style one (CK 1" perhaps or an XT) I will gain about 1.5cm of steerer into the crown.
Thoughts?
