Re: [RBW] Re: ISO 120mm quill faceplater 25.4

[Steven Aussenberg]

Fair question. My current one does have a slight rise. It’s the BlueLug FW30 “power stem.” I don’t think the 90-190’s come in 120 unfortunately. But my 135 was a 90-190, and I definitely preferred the aesthetic of that 90deg angle. That just gave me the idea to geek out with the online stem comparison tool at http://yojimg.net/bike/web_tools/stem.php for a minute, though, thanks lol. Unfortunately Blue Lug doesn’t publish the angles for their power stems, but I’m guesstimating +15deg for the FW30 and -15deg for the FW33. I guess I could measure on my current FW30 w a protractor, but I don’t have one.  I still would definitely prefer a 90-190 to either, but since it’s not made in 120 (unless they changed that with the new batch due to arrive at Riv any day now, but something tells me they didn’t) I think my hopes are stuck on a FW30 or FW33. Might even prefer the classic “7” shape of the 33 to to 30 at this point, but only slightly. I think I emailed Blue Lug a month or two ago to ask for a restock ETA, but I never got a response. And before you suggest a vintage single bolt stem, not only have I also been looking, but I really don’t want to unwrap my bars at this point in the game. Cheers!

Have I thought about a quill adapter and 120mm threadless stem? Yes. But not worth it for me and I think they’re absolutely hideous.  Thanks again!

Been warned though, I did get a tariff bill from FedEx when I ordered a stem from Alex's Cycles about a month ago.  On Thursday, October 9, 2025 at 7:46:00 PM UTC-7 steven.a...@gmail.com wrote: As the title says.
