A beartrap 2 nut does. But you have to grind away the lip on the top.  :daumenhoch:

If you fitted a complete beartrap type the stem would sit a bit higher. Also the top gyro plate would be in the correct position so you have more adjustment. ;)

Yes jaymz. But it also has to look right mate.
That headset with back to back headset cones and a few washers looks a bit of a bodge.  :shocked:  :daumenhoch:

I know you are a better bike builder than this attempt. (If you don't sort it I will fookin sit on u!!)  :LolLolLolLol:  :4_17_5:

Stu is right J.

Grind the top lip off the locknut with an angle grinder and you are good to go ... ask Gav. - he's got one I did and it fits sweet  :daumenhoch:

I did it on Sunday. Just need to fit it
Also robbed some peg bolts for the front pegs. And yet more washers to space the forks away from the hubs

Do the peg boss holes not just need a drill bit running through them due to the extra thickness of the plating?

Ah Jay you cant drill the forks man!  :LolLolLolLol:

Cant you just use an piece of 8mm allthread with a nut on either end?  Are you actually planning to stand/grind on them or will they be decorative?  :daumenhoch:

Decorative mate, and I think fugazi is right, the plating is rather thick as the cut edges are rounded with so much plating

Is this not finished yet Jay  ???   ::)

I don't know, it's only a bike. Should take about an hour and half to bang together and get everything setup right  :daumenhoch: 

I would have asked Adam to come round and give me some help :coolsmiley:

Hurry up man! I want to see it finished  :4_17_5:
