Thanks for the dims - I’ll try and knock up a basic drawing next week.

That was my thought/concern as well.

I thought there might be something in the archives on the geometry/sizes etc but I couldn’t find anything. Does such a document exist?

Getting the drops high enough without the end result looking shite and/or unridable seems to be the challenge. Going to have to make some drawings…

Maybe I need to research the stem options more thoroughly. Could you go with a slightly bigger frame than you’d usually take?

I’ve been incubating an idea for a while and I like the idea of using an Overbury’s but that’s only because I grew up around the corner from the shop. I guess finding the “right” steel frame for drops is probably more important.

F1... was it 1.00 or 1.125"?

I know people have done it but how well do they ride?

Finally figured it out. BITD the boss on the frame could be used for either a hydraulic or if you used the big ferrule, cable operated brakes.

...again no dims. https://www.cannondalespares.com/Cannondale-Headtube-Brake-Cable-Guide-Frame-Stop--KP224-%28each%29/product_detail/3-40798

There are no dimensions and no stock but these look right; https://cannondaleexperts.com/collections/frame-cable-guides-stops/products/cannondale-evo-synapse-headtube-brake-cable-housing-guide-set-of-2-kp224

The ID of the cable stop on the frame (a 2002 Cannondale Silk Adventure) is 7.78mm. The OD of the ferrule is 7.52mm and that has an ID of 6.28mm.

Working on a new project and the cable guides are huge. The only ferrule that fits is this thing but I’ve only got one… Any idea who makes them as I’m not getting many hits on the web?

Thanks. Forgot to say I want the early ones without the reinforcing brace…

Anyone?

Wasn’t this up for sale on FB a few months ago?

Just for clarification... this is what I'm looking for;

I wish I hadn't sold my old ones but... Looking for a "nice" pair that aren't too scratched/scuffed, which is a common occurrence if you drop your bike on it's side. Apologies in advance if I'm a bit picky...;)

Where’s this been lurking? Very nice - I love the Astral paint scheme😎

Thinking of using these and a set of XC bear traps. None of that newfangled SPD stuff for this early 90’s build😉
