Cook Bros stem

Count me in as long as it's less than a few hundred!

For a few hundred I'll wait to get lucky with an original

Why are there so few high rise 130mm’s though, they’re always 150! ...How so??

This is very, very true.

I'm desperately trying to find a high rise stem in both 1" and 1 1/8" somewhere between 110 and 130 and it's near impossible.

So much so I'm actually looking into having something custom built for both.

Ditto to all of that!

It’s definitely got to be a top candidate for a reproduction, though I reckon it might be more difficult/expensive than anticipated…
Probably be easy enough to get a mediocre copy made - but the originals are beautifully machined and the finish is superb. And then there’s all the etching…

Double ditto. ^^ agreed. Synlos is the man I reckon. A few popular custom lengths and rises and they should sell @ a few hundred £/€s

I have read that the stems are slightly prone to snapping That being said I have 6 set of the cranks, one if which has been hammered since 89 with no issues. They will not be getting any abuse from me anymore. The days when I could justify $1000 for the top one to my door are long gone perfect though it is
