It's hard to know if that alloy stem has been heat-treated, but most cast alloy parts need machining while the alloy is still soft and malleable, before final heat-treatment to guarantee the strength and stiffness needed for things like tapped screw threads. Machining something that's been heat-treated can have wildly different effects depending on the type of heat-treatment the alloy has had, so it's a gamble that might go one of several ways, a few of them being undesirable. 🥖🥖Rather than trying to drill the stem, why not 3D-print something that covers up all the mess under the stem, replacing the existing plastic aero wedges where the bar meets the stem clamp? 🥖🥖

In the 70s and 80s, my dad was a major 'recycler". He often went to the local garbage dump and brought things home to tinker with. He brought a car wheel home one time, but the holes for the lugs weren't right for the car He wanted to put it on (my car). So he redrilled it. Do you know what happened? It formed cracks between the newly drilled holes and collapsed while I was driving. No one was hurt, but my father, who had a PhD and a masters too in another discipline, learned a valuable lesson.

I would drill it. A lot of the material is there and physically does nothing. They've just left it because it costs time and hence money to remove it. The metal is 4-5mm thick and I'd be surprised if drilling two 5mm holes made a massive difference - just don't go to the corners. Also preheat the metal in the oven to 60C before you do it, it will reduce the risk of a crack from drilling that you can't see. I appreciate a lot of commentators will be risk averse but this is a KZitem channel and people are tuning in to either see you hurt yourself, make an expensive mistake or end up in Accident and Emergency!

Got this cassette in 11-32, but will return it. Shifting is pretty poor on my bike (90's steel frame, Ultegra R8000 groupset, YBN SLA chain), light years behind a Shimano or even a Campagnolo 11s cassette. Maybe it would be better with a Shimano chain and another derailleur hanger's geometry (mine is a bit on the edge of general specifications), but I suspect cog's ramps to be poorly efficient. Quality-wise it doesn't look very good neither, the spring washer on the lock ring is so thin it crumbled when installing the cassette...and it looks like you can tighten it forever, but I did stop to what looks like an acceptable torque by rule of thumb. Some reviews on forums are talking about alloy cogs being even weaker than standard alloy cogs (and it's still far weaker than steel), with occurences of broken teeth. Will try the Goldix / Ztto ful steel cassette 🙂

Why not use a one-piece-cockpit with fully integrated cables like the "Rose One-Piece-Cockpit Race" (only space for 2 cables, Rose Endurace Cockpit if you need three) or a cheaper Aliexpress-alternative? That way you could fully hide all cables without drilling the aluminum stem and the cables stay serviceable too. If you wanted to recycle the existing parts, I'd consider drilling just one hole in middle of the stem, thus not affecting the structual integrity and using the hole to fit a cover cap like the one used with the abovementioned Rose Cockpit. That way you could fully hide all the cables down to the head tube too.

drilling into the stem would be easy to do. I think de-burring and rounding the inside surface of the holes would be difficult.

The smallest alloy cogs wear first. Also shifting suffers because they make the alloy cogs a smidge wider to mitigate wear and thus shifting performance suffers. If you've ever had issues shifting between the smallest cogs this will be a problem because you have to index based on the biggest alloy cogs to get adequate performance. That indexing will conflict with an optimal indexing when looking only at the small end. So you have to compromise and not get optimal shifting on either end of the cassette.

yup, you'll compromise the strength of the stem if you drill next to the steerer tube. You can test it by putting 4x or 5x the expected weight and see what happens, all my stems could probably handle 300lbs being gently set on to them. use a test base (2x4's upside down fork) and use a old steel steering tube/fork. Engineer the test platform so if you don't have weights, use your body weight and garbage bags filled with water, and only fall an inch, not 36. I'd like to see the test! Actually, I've been thinking, your handle bar will probably fail before that stem. Just stay close to the center, away from the corners or edge.🥐🥐

How can I tell on Aliexpress what the length is on the RIRO crankset? The teeth are clear but I don't really see the length options. Ah they are all 170mm and the options are just the various teeth.

arent there headet units that allow the cable to run internal? It would only be exposed between handlebar tape and beginning of the headset unit. i have a feeling that drilling would give you a hard time and the cables would probably be damaged every other day
