I'm fairly certain it's 1 inch? Can anyone confirm? thanks
I'm going to get an adaptor so I can use a threadless stem.

There are 3 sizes you have to think about:
22.2 quill size, appears you have that.
Now, do you get a 22.2 to 1" adapter, or a 22.2 to 1 1/8" adapter?
See, it's simple. Pick one.
Now you have your adapter. It's either 1" at the rear or 1 1/8" at the rear.
Now, what about clamp size? do you get a 25.4, 26.0, 26.4, or 31.8 clamp on that adapter?
See, it's simple. Pick one.
Now, you have your quill adapter and stem.
Now, find a bar to fit your clamp.
See, it's simple.
Been there, been through that.
Simplest thing, sometimes, is to find a quill stem that fits.
Good luck. I found it frustrating, but fun and interesting. Sometimes, that's the ticket.
