I need a stem...
I need a short threadless stem, preferrably 70mm or so, for the bike I'm putting together for my son. Any help? None of my LBSes have anything below about 90mm.

That sounds like mtb category where ppl needs/wants a very short stem. Why don't you try a mountain bike shop? JensonUSA seems to have a few; the stems are quite chunky looking though.
Sorry, I only have a free 110mm.

If 90mm is the shortest you can get, any chance you can get a 90mm at an extreme angle? That and compensating for the angle by redoing the spacers would give a shorter effective reach.

okay, I'm sure you all know I'm pretty clueless, but in an effort to help...
the Specialized website shows this is available 75mm
COMP-SET 31.8 X 75 12D STEM
actually there is another one that is in stock and also comes in a 75mm
here's the page

I know that Nytro had a box full of stems for $10. I was going to stop by there on my ride tomorrow and congratulate George on completing the 508. I'll dig through the box, if I find one I can pick it up, just pay me the cost and actual shipping. I've got a couple 80's or 70's but they're in use right now on my kids bikes. I actually have a 1985 Terry Road bike 43cm with a 700c/541 front.
Here you go... save some time..
