Anything quill stems. Whats your favorite? Anyone had any failures or stem related accidents?
And my question about the OD on quill stems ment for 1" threaded steerers...
I meassured few quill stems and better made 22.2mm ones like 3ttt seem to have a OD around 22.05-22.1mm and one 22mm 3ttt stem had OD of 21.875, but I had some cheaper ones marked 22.2 (like quill to ahead adapters and kalloy stems etc.) that measured below 22.0mm. So what is retrobikes opinion on using a 22mm stem ment for french steerer on a 1" steerer tube? Is going from 0.1mm cap to 0.3mm too risky? And are the expander style stems generally considered to be better than wedge style quill stems?
