I am looking to upgrade the handlebar and stem on my bike as the last use was tall but narrow shoulders so its too thin for me. I am a 43cm shoulder so i will get either 42 or 44. Also I am willing to buy ther 1" to 1 1/8 adapter if i ahve to if that will expand my list of choices.. I dont wanna brake the bank either. It can be a name or no name as long as its "quality". In canadian bux ill spend up to 40-50 on stem and 40-60 on handlebar. These would be my price after my 40% discount so I guess you can make those $$$ a little higher. If i get no name for the handle bar, how is the brand Pazzaz. Also what stem should i get. Remember threaded or threadless is fine unless the adapter is not recommended

Italian company 3TTT makes good value, quality kit. Cinelli is also part of that company and make really classy parts.
Both names produce a wide variety of designs and sizes.

heheh i like urr enthusiasm. basically i get 30-50% off all items as i work in the shop. We dont sell them in the store but according to the price book, the prices for ITM products are doubled so that when people look at the book they wont know our costs. I am able to get the ITM stem and handlebars for 30%-50% off retail depending on how much profit i wanna give my boss.
