  • Forumengers β€”Β need some help finding UK builders that might be able to make a custom steel stem.

    Need to find a stem for my Rourkie that fulfills my slightly perverted needs:

    1”ahead with ~35mm stack height
    31.8mm clamp
    +/-6Β° rise
    90mm
    Faceplate [not pinch.]
    Black black black.

    Anyone know any UK builders doing this sort of thing (tig or fillet braze) for a reasonable cost?

    Inspiration:

  • Just to entertain this "why not ... " ....

    That's what I currently have and it looks bastard horrible on 1" steerer / head tube / headset.

    Also, that is not the only tricky needle to thread; finding a stem that is low-stack and only +/- 6Β° is also a bastard.

    Thompson X2 is only options I've found but it's +/-10Β° and again it's a bulky stem in 1 1/8.

    Please no more "why nots" "why don't you just" "buy another bike"etc.
