Extralite Stem.....SWAP?

[Harryburgundy]

Extralite Stem...yes, the one I recently bought on here, but I'm not convinced it suits my Hei Hei.....I think I'll wait and try and get a Ti stem.

This stem is in very good condition. The decals are a little faded, one side worse than the other and one of the Ti bolts has been replaced with an ugly mother....see pictures.
1/8th 110mm 25.4

Ha ha...yes, I peddle booze. Unfortunately my personal collection is very small...just two bottles of 1995 Mouton Rothschild.

Or swap for a black 90mm O rise 25.4 stem...must be mint. WHY?

Swaps

Syntace 90mm 5 deg Black, sub 100g too? Is yours 25.4? Looks more like oversized?

Def. 25.4.....maybe the close ups make it look larger?
Which model of Syntace is it...piccy?

Syntace

F99, with the skeletal bar clamp and steerer pinch. I use it in reverse as it has matching upside down logo's. Don't have any currant photo's but its mint, can do tomorrow?
Here, like this but without the red 99. weighes 98 grammes with steel bolts,

compatible with handlebars up to 610mm/24” wide

I guess that belt and braces....I ride 660mm bars :?

Syntace

They are widely sold and have been for a few years, never heard of any breaking?
A Hei Hei with 660mm bars? That's pretty wide really?
I also can't see the Extralite stem being as strong or any stronger, if you want stronger, it's going to be a lot heavier?
I have a Race Face "THE" stem, which is 90mm and downhill rated and also a Syncros 95mm cattle prod, but they both have a bit more rise.

Yeh...not disagreeing with you. Lets do it.

PS The Hei Hei is going...its going on something else....I like wide bars
