Hi Ash, I don't think our website has the ability to add that feature. I'll ask our web person though. In the meantime, if something is outta stock, just email us, it might secretly be in stock. There's just 3 of us, so updating the website sometimes gets lost between other tasks. -james On Monday, August 10, 2020 at 12:06:36 PM UTC-4, Ash wrote: > > James, > > Good to know they will be back someday!

That’s great to know and a nice offer. I’m fine with the rust it has and knew it would likely happen with any clear coat. I was mostly curious If cerakote has the ability to be clear and rust preventative. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

[RBW] Re: 31.8 quill stems now available in 0, 30, 50 and 70mm
The cerakote is made to minimize rust in harsh environments: exhaust systems, parts on boats, sand. It's thin but very hard. It has a better chance of not rusting than any other clear coat, as it does not require a primer. That said, if it's scratched, that would be a point of rust egress. I am not saying rust can never happen with these, but I will say we have not seen rust on the cerakote stems yet. The version of the stem that you have had a clear coat enamel, which, lacking a primer, was going to eventually rust underneath. If you would like, send your old stem, and I'll send it with our next batch to the cerakoter. We can do satin black or clear.

Hey James, Could you elaborate on the cerakote. I have one of the previous 2 bolt stems, and love it, but it has developed rust under the coating. Does the cerakote minimize this? I know it’s used on guns and stuff.

[RBW] Re: 31.8 quill stems now available in 0, 30, 50 and 70mm
My wife's pbh is long for her torso (relative to many folks), and she's prone to neck and shoulder pain if too stretched out on a bike for more than a few miles. The other week I finally swapped out the 50mm stem on her Roadini with a 0 offset stem I bought from James/Analog a looong time go. (I rationalize my inexcusable delinquency by observing her upright bared Sam H serves her fine, so really she doesn't need the Roadini.) She came back from the first round the block test with a big smile on her face. The bike finally fits her the way she wants, and we're both much happier. Thanks James. Real nice stem.
