Current headset (KCNC PT1767D) has the same stack as a Cane Creek 40 (28 mm, doesn't seem there's a lot of variations with EC headsets unfortunately), and I do have a BMX stem installed.
Unfortunately this means the bike is slightly too short, and my handlebar selection too limited. At least - thanks to you! - the bike is being used, it's just that I'm not comfy yet!
If I got a zero stack headset cover machined I could mayyybe get 32 mm of steerer above the headset (28 mm currently with everything stock), but from what I understand it still wouldn't be enough to use a standard ahead stem safely?

Damn that is annoying! Maybe you’ve thought of this but I had a similar issue before and solved it with a low stack headset (cane creek 40 or something) and a low stack bmx stem (typically 30mm instead of the usual 40mm I think?)
