I need a 120 -17 stem for the incoming Rock Lobster. I'd like to use an Oval so it matches my bars, and not a g*y ritchey pro, like on my Pacenti.

tried atmo...no go...competitive cyclist doesn't carry 'em either...anywhere else?

Hmm.. That's funny. Cuz my LBS just got one for a guy building up a Quintana Roo Tri-bike. It has a -17 stem and the Oval bars, as well. Mebbe they didn't get the setup from QBP.

I'll ask them the next time I'm in the shop.

A Google search for "Oval Concepts R700 73 degree" shows a few vendors eg bikeparts.com, adrenalinebikes.com, dirtclip.com. They are 26.0 - don't see a 31.8.

So what are the bars you are trying to match? Polished or black? 26 or 31.8?

40 bucks seems like a good deal.

Fat Robert,

There's a distributor in NYC I think who can score any of them for you (I was looking for 150's before QBP got a few). I'll look up the name when I get home for you.
