I'm curious if anyone has run these clamps (22mm Offset). I bought a set from RIDE and when I went to put them on I had a hard time with the bar mount bushings/cones. I was told the stock cones should work, but looks to me like they are sitting way too proud. Also the countersink is much shallower on the Ride clamps than it is on the OE. I was told the stock ones would work? Anyone else run into this, did you run the stock ones? Buy another set? If so, what ended up fitting?

Another thing; The race is not cooperating with coming out of the frame, the race that came with the Ride clamps appears to fit on the OE bearings. The stock race doesn't appear to have any flat spots or damage, am i looking for trouble if I keep the OE race in the frame with the new clamps?



Thanks guys!

If the race is the same as stock, then it's OK to use the one that's stuck in the frame. But I know Ride uses some bearings that aren't the same as stock and you do have to change the race, so just double check to be sure.

The cone receiver doesn't look to be machined deep enough for those cones. Either that or you have the wrong cones than what they intend you to use. Sometimes things look deceiving until you tighten it all down, though, so you might try that and see how they look. Seems Ride should be able to point you in the right direction, though, since it is their clamp!
