Visually that Rene Herse stem is quite nice imho. I also like the functionality of it. The integrated decaleur, the brake cable hanger and even the light switch is a neat feature. That extra tube and glueing or brazing it in though? Can fuck right off.
It's like converting a perfectly simple bike following well-established standards into something with a proprietary cockpit. To me, that's the opposite of good design or functionality.
