[RBW] WTB: 26.0 Quill Stem for Ron's Ortho Bars

2022-06-09 Thread Justin Kennedy (Brooklyn, NY)
Does anyone have a spare/extra 26.0 clamp quill stem with decent reach (~90-110mm)? Preferably Nitto Tallux or Technomic. This is for a temporary bar set up with some Ron's Ortho Bars, so I don't necessarily want to buy a brand new stem. Thanks in advance! -- You received this message
