Does Nitto (stems, not tires) have a website? I can't find it.

Thanks,
Jeff

ハンドルバー&ステム、シートピラー
          キャンピングキャリア、置きスタンド、ボトルケージ、
          フロントキャリア、リアーキャリア、等

The website appears to be incomplete. There is no model 176, 177, or 115. Also many bars show the max width to be 42 when I know they are available in 44.

Agreed. Plus, finding it on the site and finding somewhere to buy it are two different things. You'd think they would be able to make it easier for folks over here to buy their stuff.

Doesn't seem to include the Technomic or Technomic Deluxe stems either.

Aren't those the NTCs? (lots of their products have multiple names, in part I believe due to GP's penchant for cutesy nomenclature)

Maybe you're right. But you can't lay off "Technomic" or "Technomic Deluxe" at GP's door. Noodle, Dream, sure - but I think Nitto came up with Technomic on their own, just as they did with Pearl.

Don't see those drop-dead gorgeous fillet brazed threadless track stems, either.

They sure do make some beautiful stuff.

If I could be alone in a room with Mr. Nitto, I would beg him to make a bar with a greater drop than 140 - something along the lines of a Cinelli 66 or 3TTT Merckx bend. Those were hugely popular in their day and I just don't understand why nobody makes one today. The only bar I know of is the Deda "Belgian Deeps" and they are not even close and they don't come in 26.0.

Agreed. And functional. Best possible combination.

(Edit: Actually, best combo also includes reasonable prices, which they usually are.)

That's pretty much my go-to site when I need to reference Nitto stuff. Or when I need to read about why riding in Birkenstocks is better than clipless.

I wonder what Grant thinks of Rapha? ;)

Ben's Cycle also has pretty good descriptions of various nitto bars and stems.

Alex's Cycles in Japan has a pretty extensive Nitto inventory:
http://www.alexscycle.com/

You could also find a LBS that deals with Euro Asia Imports:
http://www.euroasiaimports.com

Or a shop that deals with Merry Sales:
http://www.merrysales.com/

Between those three sources and the ones previously mentioned, you should have a pretty complete representation of Nitto's inventory.
