could I use a threadless stem extender? Would that work?

Thanks for that info!..its a 1 inch threaded. 6.10 inch length...I may consider selling if someone wants it.

I acquired this Amp Research fork in near mint condition. Unfortunately the fork steering tube is 1/2 inch or so too short for the frame I wanted to use it on. Im wondering if I can cut/weld extend the tube or what my best options are. Any help is appreciated.

I haven’t weighed it yet but it’s very light From what I’m used to. Probably 20-23 lbs

I have heard that. I have zero experience with road bikes. Ive only taken it for a short ride so far but I didnt notice anything unusual. I’m going to have to spend some time in the saddle to get a real feel for the ride of course.

Thx for the info. I researched the bike on the internet for hours with fascination before I decided to buy it.

Picked this up in Toronto yesterday. Vitus 992.

I’m not a road bike guy either but it nice to try something out different from my usual stuff. I’ll probably learn a few things.

I found this French made Vitus 992 locally and couldn’t resist it. It’s about 30 years old and in beautiful condition. My first road bike.

I cut a headbadge.

Thx. havent weighed it but it’s heavy, maybe 60 -70 lbs

Scored pair of Surly black floyd cruiser tires from a local guy a couple days ago.

I just finished refurbishing this 1965 Moulton 4 speed that I picked up a couple months ago. Powdercoated the frame silver. I painted the fenders myself . New tires. I got a nice vintage Wrights saddle cheap locally that just needed a good cleaning and conditioning plus some dye. New cables and...

Got a broken spring. Anyone know where I can get a replacement?

The fork length isn’t the issue. The fork will accommodate the 26 inch wheel no problem. I have 26 x 4 inch tires on mine and still have clearance.

How’s the build coming? Did u get the fork issue figured out?

I've been using doing a lot of rail trai riding with this bike lately so changed the tires to a 2.8 on the back and 2.10 on the front. I got the tires for $5 ea. from my local community bike shop and they were like new.

your Welcome. Sorry I couldn’t be more helpful. Let me know how u make out. thats a nice frame. I was actually thinking on getting the hard time frame, but decided on the tango. I seem to recall emailing Ruff cycles and them telling me the regulator fork wouldn’t fit the hard time frame. I...

Ok. So I’m racking my brain trying to remember what I did exactly as it was last summer when I installed mine. I’ve only done this once so I can’t remember exactly. I do know that I needed an extra pair of hands to get it set up. i assume u have the hard time original frame so the steering tube...

Hey. I will get back to you later with some photos etc. Don't worry, the issue should is easy once u know what to do.
