Maybe your bike should get over itself.

Just a note: finding a 1" threadless stem is tricky... you're better off using a 1 1/8th" stem with a shim... at least as far as selection goes.

On a bike-snob note, I am kinda disturbed by the fact that you specify an angle but not extension. Does no one care aout bike fit?
That said, I have a few 1" threadless stems that I will never use.
I have an old 120 mm salsa, 75 degree, 1 inch threadless, 26.0, black powdercoat. Sleek and damn stiff. I also have:
-a 130mm hi-rise 1" threadless 25.4 mtb mikkelsen stem, removable face plate, heavy and goofy looking.
-1" threadless interlock, 95 degree, 130mm, 26.0
-a 90mm 1" ~110 degree threadless grey ritchey.
I would be down to trade/sell any of these and I will probably be at hellyer this saturday.
