I have this major taylor style stem seatpost diameter is 26mm.

Does any one have a stoker stem with 25.4mm clamp diameter for both handlebars and seatpost, that they would be willing to swap over. Something like this would be perfect.

I don't mind using a shim to if the diameters aren't correct.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated as I've been building up an old uswb Claud Butler tandem for a while now.
The intention is to use it as transport for our prospective wedding (i don't care about the dress i just want a nice tandem).

I'm nearly done but just can't find a nice stoker stem anywhere that will work and the boyfriend/fiance is beginning to think this is just an excuse to put off the impending doom of marriage (it's not!).

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:

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

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

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