I’ve a frame with a hole in teh seat tube for a stealth dropper…i’ve a normal dropper.
Don’t really want a 12mm long open hole on the frame – I’m struggling to thing of what to google/search for to bung it up.

Something like a rubber bung, but oblong…

Ideas??

Sugru?

Sugru, make your own. Or a sticker.

Blanking Grommet would probably do it. Might be flexible enough to shape to the hole – or maybe you can get oblong ones?

Something like this?

Baby robin.

a small cow?

Specific thingy from orange?

Wrap a bit of tape round the tube.

a small cow?

or far away?

Silicon sealant and you can shape it to fit the gap…will also be easy to remove when you either decide to run a stealth or sell the frame on to someone who wants to run a stealth.

I hate you all.

Specific thingy from orange?

Well, not all of you…

I have a simular problem, mine came with a grommet with a little slit in it so you could run the hose through it, but it fell out, lost forever – I’ve got a hose poking out of mine, but it still lets water and crap in to fall onto the tube between the BB shells.

Can’t find the right grommet anywhere, nor the ‘Intense’ branded direct derailuer mount cover.

It fills me with much saddness.

I’m THAT close to giving up cycling, because of this… 😉

Could you bung it up with cheese? That way, you’ve got a handy snack if you ever get stuck.

At present i’ve got my finger in it.
Hinders my gnar…

tampon?

Sudocrem

tiny butt-plug? (as in the butt-plug is tiny, not designed for tiny….ah you get the idea)

Yeah, but then the water would get in again. You’ve not really thought that one through, have you?

Wax?

candle, ear or from an edam cheese

A donkey?

Make sure you pick one that’s casual about it like this one.

Rubber blanking grommet. Soften it in boiling water.

I don’t have a cup big enough to fit a whole bike into boiling water. Don’t be silly…

Use a file to make the hole nice and round. Then you’ll have a great choice of grommets that will fit.

Throw a large bottle of Stans tubeless sealing fluid at it! 😆
