  • Krystal you say? Might have one or two knocking about.. think they're maybe too long for you tho sig.

    Otherwise I'm a fan of TIG steel stems. Eclypse, pro chrome etc.

    Not sure about the look ergostem on this build, might look good, might be a bit distracting. Won't know until you try it!

  • Interested to hear what length they are! I found a reasonably priced 110mm 3ttt pro titanium, but the quill was shortened which may not be ideal if I want to raise it a bit (been thinking about getting a sugino pope hat if the front end feels too low). I'm also eyeing up a look ergostem but it's matte black and I'd rather have a silver finishing kit. It would be a functional and slave option but might be a bit distracting. Judging by the test ride with the parts bin build, I want to get my position a little bit further forward with a zero setback seatpost. I found two ideal van nicholas ti seatposts with zero setback on marktplaats but one sold right before I contacted the seller and the seller of the other one doesn't want to post it abroad and I moved back to Germany 2 months ago :/ With the zero setback seatpost and the compact bars I guess I could go with a 120mm stem max.

  • I'm based in Amsterdam and wouldn't mind sending it on if you like?

  • Just skimmed through this - nice frame! (I like the green)

    Just wondering what compact bars you're planning on matching with the pro ti stem as my HWY1 wouldn't fit mine... I may sell the stem, 110mm in decent condition if yours doen't go as high as you need it to...

    Cheers,
    Matt
