Singlespeed & Fixed Gear - 26.0 Quill Stems

Anyone have any experience?

Since I can't seem to find bullhorns (besides Somas) to fit a 25.4 stem I'm wondering if I might as well just switch my stem. I'd like something that still has something of a track look though (i.e. not this (http://www.jensonusa.com/store/product/ST406B01-Salsa+Sul+260Mm+1+Quill+Road+Stem.aspx)). Is there one you'd recommend?

I probably will resort to that. May go over to Kalavinka and get a pair of 123s tomorrow after I meet you. But I really would like to get the 021s or 019s....

Is that so long that I'll be forced to have a whole lot sticking out of the headtube?

Depends on how long your steerer tube is. If your bike is about a 56 or larger, you should probably have a pretty full range. Smaller and it may bottom out.


If you want a twenny dolla holla, the Kalloys from NYCbikes are nice looking and good quality.

I just found the 3TTT Evolution stem (http://cgi.ebay.com/115mm-3TTT-3T-2002-Evolution-Quill-Bicycle-Bike-Stem_W0QQitemZ180106434587QQihZ008QQcategoryZ42333QQcmdZViewItem). Should fit, and it has a hinged face which will be nice for switching bars. Think I'm probably going to get it unless there's a reason I don't know of not to.

one reason not to buy that one: its 115mm

I used to have this stem. There are two links at the front of the stem that allow you to swing it open. One of my links broke after a few months of use. I wouldn't recommend this stem, or at least these kinds with the link thing that open them. If you want a removable stem, then maybe you should get a threadless and attach it to a quill adaptor.

Thanks for the heads up.

I only have 26.0 handlebars and stems... I've used the Nitto Technomic, Dynamic II and Deluxe. The Deluxe is my favorite...nice and lengthy, but I ride a taller bike for it... 60mm too, I love the short reach (paired with the height) to keep my posture up.

Does anyone know of 1" threaded quill stems with some elegant rise (26.0 clamp)? I'm looking to put road bars on a pursuit frame and want to kind of mimic the look they use on high end modern track bikes with riser threadless stems. I think having an angled stem looks better than using a regular stem with a long neck, but I suppose those stems are more versatile in the end.

its easy to get 26 bars into a 25.4 stem...

I got all these cinelli stems... no bars tho. Whats up with that?

Salsa SUL cromo quill.
