Beleive it or not I found this in a skip dive connected to an Alu Elite and couldn't just leave it! The Alu Elite has been turned into a bike for my brother in law and I hope that finding a home for the bar setup will help my Karma in finding a 1inch quil Kona Velocity stem for a differnet build.

Details: It not in great nick as you can see in the pics but it's not beyond the efforts of a keen restorer. It came out of an 1 1/4inch headset so I guess we are calling this a 1 1/4inch stem. the Stem itself is 135mm c to c but it's achilles heel is that the bolt and quill wedge are missing!

The bars are 540ishmm at their widest. The thumbies are Suntour Power Controls. The right shifter appears to have 9 useable clicks. the brake levers are Dia Compe.

First PM that wants it gets it. I will post but if you want to collect then I'm in Otley, near Leeds.

Like I said, hope it stirs the Karma pot and throws up a 1inch Velocity stem!

Was the bike found minus its fork by any chance? I think I may have met the bikes owner the other day. A chap whos orange alu fork had rusted through from the inside out and left him in a heap on the floor. I explained to him that finding a new 1 1/4 fork may be a long winded job but worthwhile. I guess I must have put him off!
 
Be keen for the bars if people only want other bits? Had some on my old dynatech when it got stolen bitd :D
