This stem goes onto 90 percent of the bikes we sell, so that should tell you how much we like it. It is beautiful, strong, and has a 190mm quill that lets you raise the handlebar as high as it can get without looking marginally goofy. It is cold-forged aluminum. Quill diameter is 22.2mm, so it fits in all of our bikes and most other traditional bikes with 1-inch threaded steerers.  We sell it with a 26mm handlebar clamp (which fits all Nitto and many other drop bars, and the Nitto Moustache H'bar) or 25.4 clamp which works with an Albatross, Dove, or straight bar.

Get the Nitto 26.0 to 25.4 shim (part #16-095) if you need to use the 7, 8, or 9cm stem and a 25.4 bar.

Want to make your bars look nice? Finish off the wrapping with twine. Here's a link  that shows how to do it.
