Ahead to Quill Stem retro adapter

nv55 You can get adapters to do it the other way round, but I've never heard of one that goes that way.

Quill stems are shit anyway - they fuse into the forks because it's impossible to get an airtight seal and water and stuff gets in. I had a quill stem that fused and had to cut it away from the fork steerer to get it out. Then had to throw both away.

Quill stems aren't shit really are they?

We all managed fine on them for years. I still use them on my roadie. True, AHead is a better system but quill is just fine for most ppl. If you maintain your bike thoroughly quills are fine and won't fuse. Lets remember as well we're only riding a bike along a road. If you were riding BMX Freestyle or Freeride or Trials then yes a quill would be stupid. Aheadsets are a bit overkill on road bikes for my liking.
