I'm just interested to know what the general rule of thumb is for steerer tube spacers. 5mm, 10mm, 20mm?
Dusty Springfield!
Sorry, wrong thread. I thought this was a pop quiz.
20mm for me usually.
0mm.
5mm below
10mm above
20 Below, 10 Above.
Which bike?
Tandem 40mm but a fairly flat stem, solo 15 mm but a stem with rise. Commuter 30 mm and a high rise stem.
I like high bars but all 3 bikes have different shaped bars and different length headtubes - the actual grip height relative to the seat is about the same
5 above and 20 below I think.
Currently 15mm, 5 below, 10mm above on MTB. Road bike similar height, but all under stem to raise it up slightly.
15 under and 15 over the stem on the mtb, 20 below and 0 over on the road bike. Just 30 below on the hardtail, but still experimenting there...
15mm under, 10 mm above.
