looking for something quite specific..

black 1 1/8" top cap for 1" to 1 1/8" converter.

in other words a black topcap with a hole big enough for a 1" quill stem bolt.

something like this, in black:

interim solution:

but would like a real one, not one coloured in with a marker long term

thanks

I have an adapter on which the quill bolt is recessed, and there's a black plastic push-fit cap, like a wide bar end plug, that fits on top. Any use to you?

I think I know what you mean, any chance of a pic at your earliest convenience?

thanks :)

I have one of those on my Roberts tarck, pretty ugly tbh...

Will this fit?

the hole is too small.

apollo, I was thinking about doing the same - drill it.

if you drill it, there will be nothing left to support the bolt.

Some adaptors actually come with a top cap, I've got one knocking around somewhere...

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
