The lunchbreak stem project (finito pics 21st)

<< < (8/22) > >>

So with the drill bit in place it dawned on me that the little pillar drill may struggle removing so much material and a good quality hole saw would be a much better option.




Nevertheless i pressed on and just took my time with it.  :)



It took around 25 mins  :LolLolLolLol:

My only concern would be the seamless look, Would be OK on a carpet queen, But wouldn't fancy riding it.

was thinking the same thing - won't there need to be a little gap so you can clamp down on the bars better?
looks ace flush, but can see the bars slipping if the 2 parts of the stem are completely flush...???

At the moment there is a gap of around 2.5mm between them. if it needs to be bigger I can file one of the internal faces but looking to have an almost seamless gap once installed on a bike  :D

oldschoolace:
Easier to see the gap in these shots  :daumenhoch:
