I fitted it on under the Black Inc bars. @takolino’s 3D printed transition cover has a lower stack height so it looks like I have to trim 5mm off of my steerer which I’ll do when I get the chance.

But for now, I’ll keep the 5mm spacer on top and ride it to see how the fit works for me. Otherwise, a pretty good fitment to the Black Inc barstem.

Thx takolino!

would be the max more or less I would put under the stem on an aethos
Ok 3K weave external layup on the steerer but still it is a very light disc fork so I wouldn't play too much

I don't think the particular kind of spacers matters on the Aethos fork but the specs for maximum spacer stack below and above the stem plus the maximum height of the stem itself should absolutely be heeded. The Aethos steerer tube is really thin and the expander is structually more important than it is in other fork systems.
