Why have I never seen a quill stem on a Dolan Pre-cursa?

...I'm thinking of getting one for the commute but I'm a sucker for a quill... anyone ever seen one set up without a threadless heatset?

With a thread less setup you'll have access to much more options for bars let alone stems. Functionally it doesn't make sense to go for a quill.

can't tell if trolling or not but...dolan pre-cursa has a 1 1/8" headtube and quill stems are for 1" headtubes. that's why you wouldn't have ever seen one, because they don't exist

They do exist, but I don't see why you would ever go for one

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
