Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

SS&FG Small Questions Thread

Is this a stupid idea? It seems like a ton of threads are just a simple question that gets answered in the first or second post, so maybe it would save on some clutter?

(Also it's mainly because I feel bad for making multiple threads to ask small dumb questions.)

Regardless, I have a question. Anyone know what Cinelli stem this is?

I actually just went through old Cinelli parts listings myself and found out it's a 1R! They seem great, I'd just have to get some shims.

But the thread might still be useful!

Not like there's a bandwidth shortage or something.

Actually, it's an XA.

The 1/R uses a different clamp mechanism and was discontinued after only a few years because of recurrent clamp failure problems.

I have one of those. I don't remember what the model is but the bar clamp is 26.4mm. Nice match for an old Cinelli bar.

I like the multiple threads option over the one big thread idea. The big thread concept would make using the search function more difficult since the title of this thread would have nothing to do with what you're trying to find.
