@venomcheck, can you take a close up photo of your bike from several angles? The only issue is that the head tube looks different from the original Strada so I'd like to see some closeup photos. If it's the same, my CAD should work. Just need the height of the carbon spacers after you add the included adapter.

@takolino Sorry it took me longer. Got sick right after Christmas :oops:
I hope I understood you correctly and took right photos. Please let me know if you need any other angles/combinations. Thank you.

NP. This confirms my first thoughts. The frame has been updated since I bought mine. The HT has been extended above the TT and the topcap is smaller in diameter. You can check for yourself. My topcap is 47mm. Yours looks smaller. My CAD file will not fit your bike.
Because of the smaller diameter topcap, the supplied adapter will look too chunky. What I would do instead is to blend the shape of the underside of your stem to the circle diameter of the upper diameter of the HT over the height of the required spacer. Also, there's not enough space to use carbon spacers under the 3D printed spacer because the stem is narrower than the Metron integrated bar. You'll have to print the spacer out of a more robust material which may cost a bit more. I'm not sure of the right material since I have not done this. Perhaps carbon/nylon filament or SLS printing.
Good luck!

Hi Takolino,

Do you have a 3d file of the standard Vision ACR spacer? I'm trying to find one but no luck so far

Hey @stanvr, sorry for the late reply. Not checkning here that often these days. It's been a while since I worked on the ACR fitment. Digging through some files, I found a spacer but not sure how accurate it is. It's a simplified file for the purpose of making the integration shroud so please confirm how close it is to the real part. I'll post it on grabcad as ACR spacer or something like that.

Need some help.
I got a Strada too. If I want to use a FSA ACR stem or a Vision 5D cockpit, wich headset do I have to use?

first of all if you dont have a cockpit already - get the acr version or acr stem, it is much more modern and versatile.

For the acr stem:
Use standard headset that comes with the frame + above aliexpress spacer.

For the metron 5d acr
Use standard headset that comes with the frame + above aliexpress spacer.

For the metron 5d
use headset that comes with the frame + fsa # 670-0128000030 spacer kit - part MW052 (it shall be included with the handlebars if bought in retail package)

Thank you for your quick help. Of course ACR cockpit or stem makes sense. I also want to assemble my Force AXS group.

So I can use my headset and order a spacer. But do I need a C-ring to get the hose for the back brake? Like this one?

it depends if you have old strada or icr version. If icr - than yes it allows internal brake routing and you need this c part.
if the classic one - unfortunatelly the best you can do without resorting to custom spacers is route it the way i did on my felt. you only will need to file a cable exit in the fsa acr top cap wich is a 5min job :)

Thank you. I got the first Strada. So it can be only semi integrated. Too Bad.

Is the steering limited with this routing?
