So want to replace the shitty plastic top cap on my Grizl. I have seen a bunch of posts about top cap replacement for the non-standard 1-1/4" steerer tube on canyons, and mostly lots of people recommending an after market expander plug to replace the stupid one canyon has.
Is there any reason I cant just put a 1-1/4" washer on top of the spacers, and then my normal 1-1/8" top cap on top? The cap is obviously too small to hold the spacers down (fits perfectly inside as per the photo) but all I really need is something to step down from 1-1/4 to 1-1/8"
Im not even sure I understand how putting a new expander plug / screw in would change the fact that the top cap isnt wide enough to hold down the spacers.
