Unfortunately, I think they discontinued the only version that worked with 25.4mm bars You could probably find a shim that would allow 25.4mm bars to work with a 31.8mm clamp, but it probably isn't worth the trouble.

If you just want a stem with a fixed angle that works with 25.4mm bars, they're all about the same. Buy something with a brand-name that you recognize (Easton, FSA, Ritchey, etc), don't spend a ton of money, and you'll be fine.
