Any question answered...

Where?: Stainless spacers for a 1 & 1/8" steerer - I have some steel bullmoose, the clamp is pretty skinny bit of tube, and the (massive scoblebrick of) thick alloy spacers look stoopid. Custom? I want about 120mm plus a skinny top.

@gbj_tester 's spacers were a perfect match for my Nitto bullmoose, but they're alu and 120mm will be pricey.

If black then tester, you can get silver ones from Ultraturn on eBay, just specify what OD you want.

What length do you need and I might have some spare.

Edit, just seen you want steel, sorry!

simworks make steel,alloy and Ti spacers that are skinny to match up with steel stems. nice but pricey though

Thanks, have 104mm below the bars at the mo, 8mm above. Alu would be fine, silver, or steel, I just assumed I’d need steel if thin (<32mm OD on clamp)

Think I might look at ultraturn, thanks.

Yes, indeed pricey. Think I want a mahoosive one too.

If black then tester

I have silver too

have 104mm below the bars at the mo, 8mm above

6×16mm + 2×8mm would be £40 from me, plus £10 for a plain stem cap

Is it the same as part Q (dérailleur cable stop) or have they been dicks and made it different?

Loads of options on Triton so your guess is as good as mine

just found https://www.cannondalespares.com/ which is probably going to be your best bet

Do you know of/can recommend a machine shop similar too I Cleenz Machinez in the same sort of area?

Well done, it's a wonder nobody had linked to that before 😉

That's the problem with "hiding" link locations, you can't search on them.

. Second thought, I’ve had a spate of bad advice (not on here), best keep this one private.

I’m afraid not, my leaving The Rat Race/ semi-retirement plan is to set one up.
It’s so hard to find a good one I ended up buying a lathe.

so hard to find a good one

It's easy to find a good machine shop, the difficulty is finding one prepared to do prototype work at a price which is viable for bike parts

I remembered that there was a place that rebuilds engines in East Dulwich so I popped down there today. Whilst waiting for the chap to finish a job and come out to discuss my small machining job I spotted the Gollywog stuck to a shelf, and then (whilst talking to him) the length of what appeared to be dreadlock that was hanging on a wall tacked to a photo of a black gentleman. Finished my conversation and left. Not sure I was reading things correctly but felt quite uncomfortable.

So, was that meant to be some racist version of pin-the-tale-on-the-donkey then, do we think?! Jesus.

Damn.

Not sure I was reading things correctly

Could just be a talisman to ward off the kind of people who would a: find it offensive and b: (highly correlated) be a massive fucking PITA to deal with.

Yeah must be a right PITA not being racist for some people 🤷‍♂️

Wow.

Had to google gollywog.
