This is a print meant to assist with bike maintenance. It is meant to be strapped to the top tube of your bike with ski straps (AKA voile straps) when removing the fork. It gives a spot to park the handlebars and stem while the fork is out of the bike. Includes a storage pocket in the middle to store the star nut bolt and anything else required. Pull the bolt and cap off, then place the spacers and stem on the post in the order you remove them. When putting everything back together install in the spacers and stem in the reverse order that you took them off and you're back in action.
The removable cradles are meant to be used when working on DH bikes as they don't have a stem, so the 35mm handlebars sit in the cradles rather than the stem going over the post.
It is highly recommended that you print the main print out of TPU or another flexible filament if you have the ability. If you print it out of PETG or another standard filament the post will be prone to breaking if you accidentally run into the bars while they're on the post, or drop the fork while the hoses are still connected to the bar/levers. TPU is very tough, I've dropped the fork by accident when with this strapped to the bars and everything was A-okay. The side cradles can be printed with PETG, PLA, or really any filament.
For one assembly you'll need the main stem storage print and 2x cradles (one for each side). All prints are designed to print fine without supports.
