My current Deda zero 1 stem has a collar height of 40 mm and I want to replace it like with like (swapping from 110 to 120 mm in length.) The latest zero 1's (I must have a recent but older version) appear to have a slightly higher collar of 41.5. Will this small amount cause any problems or can i just go ahead and fit?

    It may ir may not.

    Pinch bolts must never have their centreline above the top of the steerer.

    Carbon steerers have their own requirements and they should be followed.
