Anyone have an upswept kinda quill stem like this one? must be willing to post and accept paypal for cash.

Someone must have something like this from an old mountain bike in a parts bin.

Or can point me in the direction of one for sale, best I can find is a nitto for £33, which is a bit steep/fancy for my winter hybrid.

I've got an 80mm traditional quill with high angle head section, has had a nice light polish and has barely any marks to it.

If you want a new one, look on ebay for a swan neck stem - VeloSolo sells them for £15 new.

Otherwise a normal eBay search for 'quill stem' will bring you 10's sub £10 including postage

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.
