Please disregard complaints about their aesthetics- they look fine and there is a need for this component in the market. I have a fine old one-inch threaded MTB frame that will be far more usable with a modern handlebar, and the ISO testing is important to me as well. Any word on ETA? I check the website weekly.

I'm thinking of pairing it with the Chris's rando bars, which have more reach than the bars that I'm used to (use stems with 130 reach but the bars are more like 85), but I'm also going to have them higher than my current bars on my go fast bike, so I assume I'll want them further forward to account for the decreased drop. I'm not sure the best way to figure that out, but I do like the look of the Cigne stem for the taller extension than something like a technomic. The VO Quill stem would be an option, but I like the removable faceplate of the Cigne. Do you have an estimate yet of how much the quill adapter will run?himespauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10982523769642111000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24415034.post-85755372963846211352017-02-19T23:36:27.552-05:002017-02-19T23:36:27.552-05:00This is very good news as it fills a (admittedly v...This is very good news as it fills a (admittedly very small) hole in the <br />market.
