Covid build perils again …. https://ebay.us/m/ljyIv1

I’ve got a pair which are less than ideal but look “ok” once fitted. 5/10 I’d say

I think the member on here was called Rampage. The one discussed in the thread - Acorn - I’d give a wide berth personally as mentioned in a thread on here by me

Final version is done. Reproduction Syncros Cattlehead 1 1/8 top caps. These are 3d printed in black with no logos and are to suit angled Syncros stems only. They have been tested by myself to destruction to make sure they are strong enough to preload a headset. This involved tightening...

Some only came in certain widths. So you cant get a UN91 in 73 x113 for example. You’d have to go a lesser width.

After a few hours of printing and testing we are happy with the final version. You can tighten a headset way beyond what you would to preload bearings (to the point the headset locks) without the top cap breaking. However as a disclaimer I’d say that you need to use a metal cap to set the...

We experimented with different variations (which mean nothing to me). Think around 10 were tried. And still experimenting today Some failed by cracking , and some failed by being too soft. To be on the safe side I’d recommend preloading with a metal cap and then add this decorative cap on...

I’ll let you know when next batch is printed. We should of done more with seems 😂

I may end up going back to tubeless yet. It’s early days but no punctures so far. For the road , I see no point. Can’t remember the last puncture I had. And at road pressures / widths the tyre is going to go down faster than it seals anyway likely resulting in a right mess.

I went with a S8 Cane creek. I’ve I did it again if likely modify one too with a relief channel

No idea. It’s not me who’s printed them
