I stuck a slightly shorter stem with a bit of rise on mine, Zoom was all I could find, in 1 1/4" at the time. I think this is 1" though so the choice is probably better. It made it so much better with less neck crick and I rode it across the country on a tour in 2014. Well worth doing.

Cheers tintin, it does take you back doesn't it.Having spent a lot of time in London i always remember ogling bikes used by cycle couriers in bitd! You used to see lots of road runners and explorers as well as the usual tufftrax's and Trekker comps!
Carl I'm already thinking about sticking a Salsa stem on there that I have on my ala carte now I've found a nice roller stem.Its a 130mm with rise although I will keep it like this for a while as I might get used to it :roll:
Nice one THM.
Although im surprised you've never built one already as most for sale are absolute gates!

I couldn't afford a lovely yellow explorer back in the 80s. These early ones still have a great vibe for me. They make me feel wealthy and exciting.

That's a fine looking bike. Turned out very nice.
