Zoidberg:
i swapped my trusty attila stem for a brand new sunday freeze stem and now it slips on every single hop

i've re-done it every time it slipped

do i file the bars, inside the stem or both? does that work really?

and for a bonus question, there's no logo etched on the cut outs at the sides so is this a new version or is there a difference?

also, how much gap is the least you can leave inside a fork steerer tube before the threaded bit?

hugh.:
The new one has no logos on the side. It also has a square font on the faceplate. The older one had the rounded classic Sunday font. As far as I know theres no major difference.

Prodigal Son:
The fuck do I get my driver locknut off? Sitting here with a pair of vice grips on the axle, sprayed a little wd40 on it, and tried to do sudden snaps with my wrench. The vice grips slip on the axle before that nut budges.

Trying to put a cult female axle in my mix.

Mychaylo:
couldnt you just knock everything out that way or is the bearing tucked behind the ratcheting ring?

Brooklynrider:
You shouldn't be using your vice grips at all. You can bolt the hub on the outside of a dropout and use an adjustable to get the locknut off. Mix axles have a broach too..
