Other than the SLAM THAT STEM head set cap, does anyone know the part numbers for other smaller caps for the 2013 Cannondale CAAD 10? FSA, RITCHEY?

9mm cane creek is42 whether it's just the upper bearing assembly or the whole thing. , ebay all day, which is what i use. U can either just use the bearing cap itself or use it with the cane creek upper bearing. The lower bearing (if u buy the whole thing) doesn't work on caad10s.

i also have an fsa 8mm one that came on one of my caad10s, i can look it up tonight, that works fine and covers the headtube completely as well.

those are the only two that i know about.

Take a look and see if you have it. I will check out the Cane Creek one.

Thanks

Use a lower angled stem? Specialized makes an adjustable stem via shims, but with +/- 0, 6, 8, 10, 17, 21, and 23 being out there, it shouldn't be too tough to make it work.

Veloflyte makes one. You can buy it from Fairwheel.

looked at the FSA cap and no number on it =\.

i can maybe edit this post tonight with a picture if u wanna send it to FSA or something, but honestly the cane creek is just as good (or the most available option)

Personal experience that Cane Creek i42 (the 40s series aka workhorse series) works just fine. I think I have tall in my parts bin ... pm if you are interested in the 15mm version.

FSA has an aluminum cap that is 6mm. "IS2" is stamped on the cap. There is a 15mm version of that cap too.

They come stock on some Cervelos.
