I'm concerned about your safety if that steerer snaps
Think he'll be fine on the tarmac? If he went with a dimension riser bar and a 50mm stem he could probably achieve similar geometry without the stack height. https://www.dimensionbikeproducts.com/products/handlebars/riser_bar
I'll admit I was thinking inside Thigh at first,
so post us a picture of this scratch fork and you'll get conformation.
I couldn't trust the tall adapter. Especially with a motor pushing you around. Even our paved roads are rough.I'm concerned about your safety if that steerer snaps

That probably would be safer...This seems sturdy though... It has a long fairly heavy bolt going down through it. Look at the reviews and lots of people using them on e-bikes...Some guy weighing 350 lbs said no problem and he had it all the way up. I wouldn't go down a mountain with it though.
I totally understand and they had to do it...I knew it was coming. I am always super careful passing people, especially if they have children, I come right to a crawl passing them, but I see others fly by. I know my Uncles girl crashed there last fall and hurt herself good, on an ebike. They will be sued if they continue to allow ebikes, etc. Even regular bikes are a huge liability. I plan of getting a regular bike too, as I need the exercise so at least I'll still ride there.
Yeah I doubt i'll leave it that high...That's the nice part, with the individual spacers you can put it at any height you want, and change it in a couple minutes.
That bolt is not structural. It's to set you bearing preload.
Good info, thank you!! I didn't know this...Never really worked on bikes much. YouTube has been a savior adjusting brake and shifting , etc. They are actually fun to work on, compared to a rusty Ford, say!!That bolt is not structural. It's to set you bearing preload.

It compresses the stack.....then you tighten the clamp around the steerer tube.
I just ordered a new coffee pot to illustrate to my dishwasher I am not afraid to replace it. Unfortunately it won't be here until the day after my dishwasher is fixed. I'm not sure how long short term memory is for a dishwasher but it's probably longer than for a coffee pot
What are you saying rusty or not Ford's are a pain to work onGood info, thank you!! I didn't know this...Never really worked on bikes much. YouTube has been a savior adjusting brake and shifting , etc. They are actually fun to work on, compared to a rusty Ford, say!!
Just got an email from a friend saying his $1400 stimulus was in his account today!!
