FMBCH-02 back in stock 8/6

Thanks for buying up the first run of FMBCH-02s! I am picking up a new batch from the anodizer today and will get them laser’d and on the site tomorrow, 8/6. Sticking to classic black and silver this round. Let me know what colors you’d like to see in the future!

The installation notes and dimensions are below — check those out if you have questions about fit. I included a 1:1 drawing you can print out at 100% to check how the FMBCH would fit on your bike.

There are optional 0.125” spacers (available separately for those with narrow fork crowns or wide headsets) and they will now come in both silver and black. The FMBCH-02 shape is revised from v1 (2023-2024) to give a little more room at the crown without moving the cable forward. Printing out the 1:1 drawing is probably the best way to check if you need a spacer. If you don’t have a printer you can make your own paper or cardboard go/no-go gauge with the dimensions provided. Email me if you have other questions!

I have a new product I’m excited to share with you all very soon, in the next newsletter.

Other news: I’m planning a small run of M6 barrel adjusters with the next batch of M5 ones, due to popular request! In the meantime, enjoy a tiny gold wrench:

I am always open to questions or comments or product suggestions, so feel free to get in touch!
