    My T50 Emeljay Mod

    I think I have a stem that is the right diameter to clamp into the end of the tube if I cut the steerer-clamp off of it. That would look much nicer, I think. I bought a 1 foot section of 16 gauge 38mm OD T6 for initial testing. The very lower part of the boom on my Sofrider, before it tapers...

    My T50 Emeljay Mod

    I have not found a one yet. The lower section of the boom on my Sofrider, before it tapers-down, is 34.9. I'll start by testing a 38mm ID tube over that. That'll let me know if it's worth persuing further. Pretty sure some other companies made 1.5 steerers. Hard to find though. I'm going to...

    My T50 Emeljay Mod

    I'm really considering it now. I like the T50 a lot for its simplicity. I like the silver hardware you chose. Doesn't show scratches. Maybe a nice yellow frame with silver. Hmmm...... I better start saving a bit for it! Cannondale headshock stems were made for 1.5 inch (38mm) steerer.

    My T50 Emeljay Mod

    The other idea that brings to mind for me is if you can use a 38mm tube as the slider. Those clamps are available for 34.9 seatposts as well...

    My T50 Emeljay Mod

    Finding the clamp that works is the most significant update to this mod I have seen. Previous clamps only gripped half the slider, letting it slip. This one wraps around the whole tube, so it will hold far more securely (like the Cruzbike part). What a great coincidence on the spacing of the...

    My T50 Emeljay Mod

    Very cool! :) I bet you could also flip the top seat post collar around so the tension bolt would be outside the plates, but on the other side. This seems like maybe a better direction then putting the Q45 boom on the T50. It keeps the regular dropouts.

    Who has the S40 in Chico?

    Yeah. That's me on the Sofrider. I Hadn't realized you got an S40! :) I spoke to you sometime last year when you riding your S30 in the park, and have seen you on your Vendetta. If I ever run into you in the park, I would be intrigued to see how either the S40 or S30 feel. One of these days I...

    Need help swapping out suspended fork...

    Where do get just a fork replacement? I would love a rigid fork to replace the old one on my Sofrider!

    T50 vs Q45 boom stiffness?

    The Emeljay will be MUCH stiffer if the upper tube is the larger one. Might be difficult to find a tube with a 34.9 ID to fit over the lower tube.
