price will go through the roof for sure.
hmmm, i think its extremly hard to find a frame where that stem would look good on. suggestions?

Never noticed before on these stems that there is an internal Roller for the brake cable, notice the cable entry point on the bottom towards the front....sweet....

I edited the pic to show what I'm talking about...

 

[Inigo Montoya]

yes, its a nice stem with nifty features.
reminds me of the ringle seat collar designwise.

These things are beautiful - they weigh a ton, but look awesome!

Yeh Ive got one but needs some parts to make it complete.

That is a roller and yes it does weigh a tonne!

The first stems ever made by Geoff Ringle (so i've been reliably informed) rare as unicorn poo

There must be something lost in the metric conversion for you English types, but a metric "ton" is just a bit over 2200 pounds...I don't think that stem weighs quite that much

I do know where there is a box of those bad boys, silver black and one 3D violet that was one of the first pieces anodized that color for Ringle

Cheers,
