Thanks. The bars are cheapies and way too narrow for my liking. They came off a rescue bike and are all I had around in 25.4 clamp. I'm going to look into some wider nitto bars in 25.4 since I cant seem to find any 1 1/8" quill stems in 26.0. If anybody has any leads on dirt drop style stems with 25.4 quill diameter and a 26.0 clamp I'd be psyched.
