[RBW] Re: Steerer Tube Honing

While reading through this thread discussion something kept going on the the back of my mind, like I'd seen something about the steering tube butting somewhere on the Web. So I finally browsed through some of Sheldon's articles and found this: *Note:* Steerers

A Technomic Deluxe is marked only as Nitto. Most likely that's what it is, but Ben's certainly offers older, obscure items on occasion. David Chicago -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To unsubscribe from this group and

It was sold as a Long Pearl, and it doesn't say either Pearl or Technomic, it says Nitto. On Saturday, April 2, 2016 at 11:14:51 AM UTC-5, Benz, Sunnyvale, CA wrote: > > Isn't a long quilled Pearl essentially a Technomic Deluxe? ... > > > On Saturday, April 2, 2016 at 4:23:33 AM UTC-7, Ron Mc

[RBW] Re: Steerer Tube Honing

Isn't a long quilled Pearl essentially a Technomic Deluxe? From specs, they both look to be cold-forged and the finishing (at least on mine) are identical. The identifying difference for me (from 3') is the handlebar clamp nut – the Deluxe version has more of a triangular threaded plate while

You need to be careful, the Tech Dlx has MIL of 80mm (vs the Tech at 65mm). This gives a maximum quilllength above the HS of 110mm and requires 80mm in the steerer. John Hawrylak Woodstown NJ On Tuesday, March 29, 2016 at 1:48:21 AM UTC-4, Lungimsam wrote: > My Tech and Tallux stems both

Probably doesn't help, at all, because I haven't seen another since - but about 5 years ago I found a Nitto Long Pearl stem at Ben's It gives me up to 90mm above the headset. Like I said, haven't seen

[RBW] Re: Steerer Tube Honing

I sometimes wonder why Rivendell sells only the Tallux with its 225mm quill. After all, not every bike has a long steerer/head tube and not every rider needs a tall stem. This is not a criticism of Rivendell; it's just an idle thought. (For my old Raleigh Competition I bought a Technomic Deluxe

[RBW] Re: Steerer Tube Honing

I had the same issue with the Heron Touring when I firsted assembled it and had a conversation with Todd Kuzma about it. Yes the steerer is butted. I just used a early Tech Dlx stem which is a cm shorter than the current tech dlx. At the time I wanted the bars an inch below the saddle, but as I
