Azarathal Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 (edited) Anyone know where I can buy one? Dave33 f**ked me over when buying his stem and I haven't found them for sale online. Anyone know? Edited May 9, 2013 by Azarathal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake. Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 I knew he wouldn't have included one haha, sorry to hear dude. Don't think you can get one separately, if he didn't tell you about the top cap and you didn't ask there's not much you can do other than ask for a refund... Which I doubt will happen.Best of buying a standard tryall/rockman topcap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azarathal Posted May 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 Yeah I have to pay to send the stem back + refund his postage if I want a refund. Absolute piss take. I've got a try-all 3d stem atm and the cap doesnt fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake. Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 will this not work? link"This is a replacement top cap for Try-All or RockMan 3D Forged 20" or 26" stems. If you had one of these stems and broke the top cap you could use this as a replacement." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azarathal Posted May 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 Yeah those won't fit the K2 but thanks anyway Ash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave33 Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 Please return the stem to me and I will return your money before you come on here slagging me off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostrider88 Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 make your own? This, it shouldn´t be too hard with drill/file/hacksaw and piece of aluminium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 This, it shouldn´t be too hard with drill/file/hacksaw and piece of aluminium. Steel would work even. doesn't have to look good just something to allow compression Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostrider88 Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 Steel would work even. doesn't have to look good just something to allow compression It would be stronger no doubt, but a lot harder to work with, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash-Kennard Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 It would be stronger no doubt, but a lot harder to work with, right? maybe slightly, but if he is going to be using a hacksaw and file i dont really see any problem with it. probably easier to find a small steel block than an aluminium one. i know in my dads garage it is haha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghostrider88 Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 Lol, ok then, could I have some of it? Only alu and wood in my garage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azarathal Posted May 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 Used a file and bodged it, the top half of the topcap is inside the stem but the bottom half allows for compression. No ideal in the slightest but at least it's rideable 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash-Kennard Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 yay bodge it. itll be fine im sure, get a pic up if you want other opinions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave33 Posted May 9, 2013 Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 I don't think you need to worry about people getting the wrong impression about you. I have been a member on here long before you and I have sold alot of parts and never a complaint until now.

Azarathal Posted May 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 Apparently because I've not been mannerly he won't help me out with the top cap situation. Apart from being a little bit grumpy (which I apologized for) when he posted it a day late and telling him I was slightly annoyed about the lack of top cap I hadn't been rude to him in the slightest, until of course I stated that he's f**ked me over a bit in this thread. No point opening a dispute because I need a stem to ride and I'd like to keep the K2, I just need a replacement topcap that isnt a ghetto bodge job.

Azarathal Posted May 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2013 Would a rockman topcap fit? Same as my try-all so I'd think not. How kind. I just found a spare top cap - fire us an email if you want it and I'll put it on the site. Thank you Adam! I was going to phone you on the off chance but didn't think you'd have one.

How kind indeed, not like you to be giving away free stuff I have told him he can keep the £5 extra it cost me to post it next day to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
