Lefty headset spacers?

[Jake Guthrie]

Hi all, I’m looking for a 5mm spacer for a lefty. The one with 40mm inner diameter. Does anyone know where I could find one? No luck with eBay and 1.5 inch headsets are too small
Cheers

I could easily put a 1.5" spacer in the lathe and bore it out to 400 mm, as long as it leaves enough wall thickness. You can probably find someone locally to do it for less than the shipping cost from USA.

Yeah thanks for the offer. I’ve got a 1.5 and it wouldn’t leave much meat on the bone. I’ve seen 20mm ones on eBay I might have to cut one down if I have no luck
Cheers

Bikewagon has 20mm AL spacers with 40 mm ID. If they won't ship to Australia I could facilitate but shipping will be expensive.

Yeah saw those, shame they don’t have other sizes. hopefully I can find a 5mm version but I’ll definitely hit you up if you can help posting to australia!
Thanks

I could probably cut a 5 mm spacer out of one on the lathe.

Got hold of a 5mm locally here in Australia through cyclinic.com.au so all sorted now, thanks for your help!
