4-bolt stem ?

[cnighbor1]

Is there a 4-bolt stem for conventional 1" threaded headset
I want to mount a carbon fiber handlebar Kestrel 42cm 26.0 on an older steel lugged bicycle if possible
four bolts has carbon fiber bolts should be troughed to a certain value and prefer to have four bolts instead of just one holding bar in place

....u dont need to run 4 bolts, 2 bolts is sufficient. There are plenty of 26.0 / 2 bolt stems out there u can run...either 1" or 1 1/8" with correct shim (most early 1 1/8 stems were packaged with a shim to mount on 1" steerer).

Yes, ITM made a few, actually the colnago stem came in 2 and 4 bolts version.

I had both, not a difference but just the looks.

OPs my mistake... sorry, missed the part that says threaded... no never seen a quill with 4.. never seen even quill with 2, what ive seen is a 1 inch quill stem with a wedge...modolo made some of those if im not mistaken, 3t i believe aswell...

always you can sue a quill adapter and get the colnago 1inch threadless stem, personally i do not like the looks of that but that is one option.

4-bolt 1" quill with removable faceplate = not possible, afaik. 2-bolt is completely fine w/that Kestrel c-f bar.

You should specify length + rise/angle you're looking for. Someone might have one they're not needing.

Email sent regarding candidates:
New:
Nitto UI-2 1" quill, 26.0
VeloOrange 1" quill, 31.8 but comes w/26.0 shim

Used or NOS, eBay:
Deda Murex (nice stem, had one for years)
3T TTT Evol
3T TTT Motus
3T TTT Mutant
Salsa (hen's teeth these days)

Avoid those hideous-looking Profile H2O abominations.

Origin8 makes one. I’ll be using it on a dirt drop setup.

Nitto UI-12, there are several now on Ebay to look at. 4 bolt quill stems. Ugly AF in my opinion but they exist.

I've seen too many handlebars separate from their stems due to a single bolt failure on 2 bolt stems to ever want to use a 2 bolt stem. I don't think it is a coincidence that 4 bolt stems are now the most common.

The mutant stems are so great to look at.

The profile stem you mention is the ugliest of all time!

Would you care for some incredibly huge, gross, carbuncle-like welds with your stems, while you decide on your main courses?"
