Gorgeous stem, but not made in Jerk-approved, Christian-needed lengths.
If this stem came in 130mm, I'd buy it.

Cool stems Jason!
But Porsche licenses their name to someone for _bikes_???! God, I wanna change my screen name.
Sorry God. Sorry Porsche. But c'mon...

Ben's Bikes offers these stems for under $60.00. I've compared the Nitto to the Ritchey WCS, and other than the finish they appear indentical. A nice alternative to the ubiquitous black stem.

I know... one of the 'brands' of bikes Posh sells is 'Porsche.' It just ain't right.

I think these are still made. TTT Forge Ahead (http://www.settlecycles.co.uk/bespoke/ttt/ForgeAheadRoad80.htm?pid=1809) I've had the same one on my Legend since 1995. It's a light gray. Also, it has an internal steerer clamp thing, rather than those ugly pair of bolts sticking out the back.

I'm really happy with my Thomson silver Elite. Not exactly a retro look, but really silver-cool nevertheless.

Vince at Ben's is the coolest. Last time I was in there he bought me tacos
:beer:
the oval concepts stem looks nice, and it comes in all the sizes the cool kids want.
