Yes, they are now using a 1 1/4" steerer tube same as Canyon's. There is a new stem option from FSA and you can now buy the Ritchey stem thru a UK Tandem store aside from ordering it thru Canyon but those two are way out of my budget. Another option is the syntace f119 which I have in my build see the pic below bought it on a Australian online shop 50% off from Syntace SRP. FYI I debadge the stem using a paint remover.
