Spork 3.0 Recommended Expansion Plug

We’ve used FSA, Ritchey, Cane Creek, and ENVE compression plugs with equal success. We quite often see manufacturer recommended torque specifications that are not sufficient for their intended tasks (for instance handlebars or seat posts that slip).

We would do the following:

  1. Clean the inside of the steer tube and the plug with alcohol to make sure it is dry and has max friction.
  2. Consider using friction paste (same as a seat tube) if you like.
  3. Go to the torque it was slipping at and add 1nm then see if it still slips. If it does add another. You won’t blow out the steer tube with a couple of extra newton meters of torque as it is extremely robust.

Light Mounting Bracket

That is a Supernova bracket. We don’t sell it on our website. We only include it on builds that include a dynamo headlight.

Ideal size for me

Based on the info we have you would fit a 52cm. Unfortunately we’ve sold out of those for 2020. We expect to have those back in stock in early 2021.

Thanks!

Cable Routing

That’s a great question so we reached out to FSA and they got right back to us.

The ACR system will only work on the Flaanimal with the press-in cups.

Here is what you would need:

 

ACR/ICR requires a 1.5 bearing up top and bottom. The 44mm headtube will work – but requires an external upper cup too.

Inside rim width of Rodeo 700 wheelset?

Inside bead to inside bead is 23mm. Narrowest part of the hooks at the outer circumference is about 20mm. External width is 29mm. We run tires 26mm up to 50mm on our 700c rims.
