Mounting with Top Cap Mount

Post by hawkesworthm »

When I purchased the Newton at its initial release there was a top cap mount for the top of the steer tube so that the Newton laid over the stem. The one problem I've had since day one is getting my headset nice and tight while using this mount. I have FSA "guts" inside the steertube so the top cap mount bolts into the FSA parts, but no matter what I do, I can't get the mount to compress everything to get it all nice and snug. I'm wondering if anyone else uses this mount and has had success with other steertube guts that may work better. If I use the regular FSA top cap with the guts, it snugs up just fine.

For what it's worth, this is a Cannondale Evo.

Thanks,
Matt

You might want to look at our new Front Mount. It will work well with your FSA setup.
