Oh boohoo. You only need a hammer to set the bottom wedge when you install it. 

All the main components on my bike already use imperial fasteners anyway.

I actually have two of the Fit Series 2 stems. I got one from a local that beat the hell out of it with a hammer. My good one will probably replace it on my old bike.

Here's a current pic of my bike. I haven't had much time to do any riding other than around town with my 6 year old son. That should change soon now that winter is here. I usually drive to an indoor park. Maybe I'll actually scratch it.

Quite a bit of new parts.
-Odyssey Dugan pedals
-Tree OG sprocket
-T1 Cyclops stem

and I went back to my old Fly seat set up.

My stem was 13 years old. I've been waiting. 👁

It took me three tries to get it installed properly.

Here's my new Barcode!



It seems to be built better than my 2007 SFA it replaced. The BB and rearend tolerances are much better. On the SFA, the BB spacer was too short and didn't really function. The rear end length seems to be more dialed, to where I can actually use my nice Profile 3/8" to 14mm adapters. The SFA rear end was way too tight to run them on both sides.
