Wow, that's ace. What a bike.... How have you destickered the cranks?
-
Beautiful!

Beautiful combination. Interested to see how transition to shifters will look like.
-
Measure your bars with a venier caliper when they arrive, there might be some tolerance?

Great hubs. I've laced a pair of these with Campagnolo Atlanta rims (36h). Gives the looks of Shamals, but 36 spokes, 10/11 speed and a fraction of the price.

Thanks :). Maybe a moderator @BigH can move this stem adapter talk from the Colnago to this topic (https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/348222/?offset=50#comment15711492) in order not to steal OP Tommasini thread?

Yes, shim is of course splitted, otherwise stem wouldn't clamp.

It's a steer extender which has been cut off to the correct length. Than there is a shim that is placed over de extender so a ahead stem can be mounted.

Pink cables, pulley wheels and tape sound like a risk, but you never know how it turns out :).
See attached picture of how I did the threadless stem/ahead. Teflon tape on the threaded part. Downside: no room for preload adjustement of the headset, so setting it up is a bit fiddly (removed wheel, than a clamp on top of stem/fork crown). Worked fine for +/- 300 km with no play or issues so far.
You might be able to win some centimeters at the hoods by changing the bars to more compact ones, with flatter transition to the hoods. Make sure to check bars diameter before. (31.8 or 26.0)
