Gang, I have a 1980 Schwinn Super Le Tour and I replaced the drop bars with upright ones but the stem is a more aggressive geometry and my knees hit the handlebars when I turn because they are so low. So I want to replace the stem with something more upright and forward. I can buy the stem shown new for $20 but I thought I'd see if anyone has a used one just like it they would sell or trade. I have the one that came on the Schwinn I'd be happy to trade. I'll add a picture of it in a bit.

I'm in Dallas and would be happy to drive anywhere in Dallas or Tarrant counties.

I have few of them in my bike graveyard (they are probably oxidized to some extent). I'll see what height and angle they are, when I get home. If I have one you can use, you can have it.

Thank you, sir. That would be awesome and I won't mind cleaning it up some!
