    Default In search of the perfect seat stay

    Vsalonistas - does anyone know if there is a seat stay on the market that is 14mm at the seat cluster end, and tapers down to 12.5 at the dropout? I've got an unhelpful combination of seat lug ports and a socket style dropout that just don't want to play nice with each other.

    You can also get the higher end Zero in a 14/18/12 double taper... I have a pair sitting here for my next project... =)

    Oh yeah, there's also the double tapered, 12.3/16/12 cromo set from Nova. Depending on how long those SS's will be they might be around 14mm at the top.

    Don't hold your breath just yet, but I have a need myself and am working on it. I'll get more details as it starts to come together.
