ickysil on January 7, 2025 9:54 pm I don’t think you can have tooo many spacers with a steel steerer and fork. Go for it.
onjefferis on January 7, 2025 9:57 pm It’s definitely going to feel weird but probably fine if you’re just farting around town.
lrbikeworks on January 7, 2025 10:03 pm Yes. That’s too many spacers. This isn’t a bicycle, it’s a trapeze.
EthanAWallace on January 7, 2025 10:13 pm On a smaller MTB frame with an odd fork, it’s completely fine. Looks really comfortable!
Long_jawn_silver on January 7, 2025 10:31 pm no such thing on a clydesdale. i have a pretty massive stack myself.
ThenIreddit on January 7, 2025 10:35 pm A good rule of thumb is that the measured length of the spacer stack should not exceed the bicycle’s wheelbase. You might wanna’ check.

If you didn’t chop the fork, it should be why not
