i recently installed a 3ttt stem just to try it out for a short run. the neck of the stem was a bit longer than my current sr royal, but it seemed considerably shorter than my headtube. it went in easily, slammed it like i always do, but after tightening and loosening the quill, it took me nearly an hour of swearing, wd40ing and cooling to remove it. now i know why.
