I obtained a set of weird bars-- Nitto B125AA Anatomics. They have a flatened anatomic top to rest your palms, similar to but not as extreme as the FSA Wing road bars. My question: Can I only use these bars with a stem that has a two-bolt faceplate? They are so rad, but it seems there is no way to get a classic quill through it. I think maybe Ceya had a set?

The flat part on the top is such that I can't seem to easily get a classic quill stem around it.

These are not exactly like the ABD-X, but I see now that the crystal blue stem has a removeable face plate. Okay, question answered, now where do I find a classy stem with a removeable faceplate that doesn't need to be found in the hidden bin of some Japanese bike shop? Salsa's may be the only option which isn't that great an option.
Can you post a pic to show how flat it is?
Cinelli 26.4 may go on your bars. what size stem u ride?

thats weird a jag wont go on it
dang, those are fresh. i want a set.
(on topic, it looks like a removable or hinged are your options. i think 3T or ITM makes a decent hinged quill.)

Does anyone know where to find the Nitto ADB-x Aerodynamic bars (or something that looks like them) that Ceya posted in this thread? Yes, I know they're rare, but danm they look good.

damn, I ended up selling mine for ~200 for the combo
I saw a set of b123aa's at my lbs today and was impressed. They were on a tiny bike for a tiny girl so they were quite small but they were still awesome.

MASH is where I saw them first. Noticed them in one of those youtube clips, found out he runs Ditta cycles, and emailed him to find out the model. He ain't old. Look at the close up of his face in Stevil's post a few days ago on HowToAvoidTheBummerLife.
