(I'm contemplating a new build just to go back to a threaded stem and it's more svelte look) <br /><br />Would love to see someone offer a cheaper version of the threadless-stem-that-looks-threaded, similar to what Jonny Cycles and Pereira were doing on some custom builds - an integral cap flowing into the stem, single bolt on the front of the stem to attach to the steerer kind of thing. Although I can see how that'd be a pain from a manufacturers perspective.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24415034.post-59659443998285222042009-10-09T23:29:37.838-04:002009-10-09T23:29:37.838-04:00That's a fine looking chainguard.
