thomson/thomson/thomson is really the only way to go.
but i like my enve stem. it matches the enve fork. both of which i would not own had they not been included with the frame when it was given to me.

Yea but they need a setback seatpost that doesn’t look like something from a mid-80’s tri bike experiment.

I'm not bashing the Ottrott, I'm pointing out that the penny pinching about this $300 Enve stem seem absurd in an environment where anyone would even bother to test ride a $9000 frameset, let alone buy one.

its not thomsons fault that its physically impossible to make such a thing as an "elegant looking" setback seatpost.

Speaking of silly, granted I spent $70 ish for a nitto pearl and an extra $10 for the LBS to put the handlebar onto the pearl

Their rims, and perhaps one of their mountain bike stems, are made in the US. Forks, stems, bars are made in Asia.
