Sorry, only had a tape measure in inches. Looks to be around 15.75”. Very close to 40cm c to c.

The caliper is set to 120mm. You be the judge on how close it is dimensionally.

My 40cm/120mm dimensions came out to be 368g with the computer mount up front.

This is mocking up the 3º adapter shim. You'll see a little sticking out below the stem

FYI, you either need to trim the 1 1/8" adapter or get a different headset cap if you don't want steerer tube extending above the stem. it sits a little proud atop the stem out of the box, unless I don't understand how to set this up correctly.

Why you have to quote all these pictures 10 times???

When you use Tapatalk you often do not realise it since it condensates all the previous quotes.

Looks better than mine, but still looks like their tooling beats up the steerer tube clamp area. Those scoring marks in particular don't look great. I don't have another carbon stem to compare to, though. My aluminum ones look fine

Sorry guys, didn't bother to weigh the Farsports spacer or the steer tube reducer. - and they're already packed up with my EVO framset and off to the painter. They are both plastic and can't weigh more than a handful of grams. The reducer in particular - I can't see that thing being more than 2g or so - there's not much to it.

I want to see how the EVO looks with the F1 - I'm now reconsidering the Deda Alanera DCR with the SystemSix, because I will need to bodge or shave the Cannondale spacers to "integrate" with the Deda. I may get another F1 to keep things looking tidy, especially if I like the fit and feel. TBD.
Do you know if it is possible to place a Deda Alanera DCR directly on top of the SystemSix cable collector headset cover? (i.e., with no other spacers in-between)

Or alternatively, if it is possible to leave out the SystemSix cable collector cover altogether, use a 3rd party low-stack headset cover (maybe even slamthatstem.com), then the Alanera DCR with the cables going straight into the Systemsix headtube tunnel?

Thanks!

Yes, the clear coat is probably very soft

To me it seems (looking at pictures) this is just as bad as 3T.
Even so i never had a bite mark from mounting shifters, just stem.
