I looked at that stem on a web site and I don't think it would have been too much bling at all. Now if the stem was one of those lugged style ones then yes, but that one was fine. Nitto also makes the Technomic if you want a stem that can go up higher and it's a not a bad looking stem either. Nigara cycle Works has great prices on Nitto stuff by the way but they don't offer the Craft stem.
