My favourite stem. I have one on my Mercian Canyon and it’s a lovely bit of kit. Made by Nitto

Yes indeed. I’ve one on my ’83 Stumpjumper. It’s a couple of years too young but I couldn’t resist.

Do you have any pic’s of the Mercian? I’ve seen your deliciously-green tourer but not your Canyon.

I wonder if it will exceed the black one $163?

Much prefer this version with that lovely satin Nitto finish

I am sure I’ve posted some pictures somewhere on the forum. I can’t find any on my phone now. Not my picture, but here it is…

I use it a fair bit when weather allows, so it is now wearing modern tyres and a longer seatpost. I also changed the bar plugs as I couldn’t live with the faux wax things

Thanks for that, I remember it well now. What a beauty, and in amazing condition!
