Is there enough clearance on the frame to run HED jet plus?

Not sure if it's specific to the Norcom, but anyone with an oversized pulley get rub when running a disc? I run an 11-25 cassette and when in the 25 it rubs on the disc. Thankfully don't need that gear much in FL

I saw one of these on clearance at my local Performance. From the looks of it, the stem is running flush with the top tube like this. I assume this means the workers cut the fork when assembling and I can no longer add in the 20-40mm of spacers anymore, right?

Correct. Look around for a used or new fork that’s uncut. They may even order you one at a pretty good discount to move the bike.

Picked my 2.5 up from Performance yesterday for $950. Working on replacing the aero bars with Profile Design T4, the shifters with Dura Ace and swapping the crank to my 105 5800 one.

Anything special to cut the seat post? I normally use a fine bladed hacksaw on my carbon fork steers.

Just picked up a Norcom Straight 2.3 for giveaway prices.

Looking at running a BTA for hydration. Any good options for storing a flat kit? Aero bottle on the down tube?

Anyone having issues with seatpost slippage? I've put in carbon paste and tightened to 4Nm, but it still slips by the end of the ride.

For anyone interested, the Oval 713 stem fits! You can find these on eBay for around $15-20.

Does anyone know where I can find anymore of the proprietary spacers to fit the Norcom?

What amount are you looking to add? I might have some left after cutting fork (and if so, you could have them).

Hi everyone! I did not get some answers that I sent in private, and then I ask who I can answer. I have a Fuji Norcom 1.1 and intend to put a set of Flo wheels in it. I have read a few comments on whether or not these wheels fit the Norcom framework. The Fuji factory instruction is to use 23 mm wheels, but the current Flo is 25 mm. Has anyone had trouble using the 25mm Flo on the frame or on the brakes of the Fuji Norcom? Thank you for your attention!

I had to take my bike to the mechanic and had them adjust the brakes when i wanted to use the flo wheels. Not sure on the 25mm since i used 23mm on mine. I had a lot of issues with my wheels so i went back to using the ovals

I use Flo 30 as training wheels on mine, and use a Jet+ disc in races -- think the disc at least has a 25mm brake track width. But brakes definitely need to be adjusted, which is a pain...

Well, analyzing the answers, and thinking of having as little error as possible, I think I'll buy some other brand than Flo, for the Fuji Norcom. Certainly some wheel 23 mm wide because everyone who placed 25 mm in the Norcom, report problems (I may be wrong) The Flo enchant me, just like the Hed, because the aluminum rim is black. And it is difficult to find currently 23 mm wheels, and black aluminum (I believe that there are only these two marks).

It's not so much a problem as the need to adjust the tricky brakes -- esp. if you're going to use the same wheels all the time, it's really a one time thing (it would be harder if you were going to use training and racing wheels that are different widths).

ETA: if the flo wheels are a good option for you, I would try them.

Thank you!


After years, I'm determined to train for another full IM in December. When I get Flo, I'll post it here.
Train safely!

I ride Flo 60 front and Flo 90 rear on my 1.1. No issues once you get the brakes dialed. They're finicky, but it does work.

Anyone know what size barrel nut fits the seatpost? Thomson ones perhaps?
