HI, I just got a stem removed from my forks yesterday at a mechanics in Camden. I had tried everything in the books because I thought the stem had seized into the forks. However that was not the problem. The was that the fork steerer had a smaller tube than average (dunno why!!) and so the stem was pushed into the steerer by force. So the mechanic had to remove it by force. I had sawed the top off so he just stuck the stem into a vice and knocked the shit out with a piece of wood and a hammer.
The problem: While knocking out the stem the rim of the steerer where the threads are was enlarged and so I can't fit the top race of my headset onto the steerer. now I'm trying to figure out how to get it to fit. ALL SUGGESTIONS WELCOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've got biopace cranks as well and wanted to know whether anyone had experience with them. I'm still looking for a 48teeth chainring that will fit on them. Must the bb be changed as well? Anyone!!
