High-rise threadless stems (17+ degrees)?

I'm fancying a pretty high-rise stem to replace my current 5 degree one, which I'll fit upside down so it'll give a little bit of drop. Yeah I could just take a few spacers out to give me the same drop but it'll look 10 times better this way, and I've got the option of going even lower by removing the spacers after that anyway. I've seen a few 17 degree ones which will give me zero rise on my frame but can't find much else except the BBB high rise stem which is a bit extreme at 35 degrees. Does anyone make anything in between? Needs to be 1 1/8", ideally 100-110mm length to fit 25.4mm bars (could shim a 26 stem), and black although I'm going to paint it black anyway to get rid of logos.

Cheers.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
