Neither am I.

This is a quill stem and in his words

.....I measured the diameter of the stem (Right before it goes into the tube) and it measures 1" or about 25mm....

I took that to mean that he's measuring the stem where it enters the fork (tube?), and posted accordingly.

I just want him to be sure that whatever he orders will fit his fork.
