    I have a brand new set of carbon Cannondale Slice forks (metal steerer) never fitted with an uncut steerer that you could have for £40 if you wish. Made by Time and in black carbon weave finish 1/18th.
    Yellow is the new Black.

    hi how long is the stem as lbs say i need 300mm..be very interested if its what i need.

    how do you work the steerer length out..i,ve just measured the one on there and from where the top of the fork meets the head tube-to the very top of of the tube(cap on the top) is 250mm.

    Stem is not included and they do not come in 300mm. The steerer is uncut so long enough
