Thanks for the kind words. Yes, it is a neat stem. Think I keep one for myself, but I only have to find a bike to go with it.
On the red al cap thing: With all respect, but I have my doubts with a 'special caution' on possibility of stripping. How can anyone strip this piece that is only meant as cover? Dmczone, maybe you were very unlucky with a part of a monday morning batch or maybe you simply used extemely disproportional force. Anyway, I feel very sorry for you. I did unscrew one, to see whether there was something interesting going on underneath. Went smooth, easy and with zero mark.
Underneath nothing spectacular going on btw. Only a solid steel bolt leading to a wedge clamp.
