This has been trickier than I thought. The seatpost has been removed - it was a 27.2mm yet my vernier calipers have measured in inside diameter of the seat tube at around 26.8mm or even 26.6mm. I also wanted a slimmer, silver 1" 1/8 stem, but one that lets you mount oversized bars. No luck so far. Most are either 1" 1/8 or oversized on both sides.
Still haven't found a solution to lower the front wheel to create extra clearance for the wheel and brakes. The Surly Monkey Nut V1s (5mm) look like they'll do the job, but Surly is quite explicit in saying they're for horizontal dropouts, not this.
