lol, but what does "didn't drool, yeah right" mean? you don't like them or you do? ... got those long stems from Harris Cyclery Newton, MA many years ago. just checked their website & quickly found the brand you mentioned. could be the same as what I bought Nitto Technomic Stem (tall) 22.2mm Quill with 26.0mm Clamp

but yeah, I've done a lot of experimentation & I try to adapt to what monster I wind up with. the drop bar ends n the MTB didn't last long. not entirely sure any of them "fit like a glove" tho. current bars on the Bottecchia are pretty comfortable, but wouldn't say I was in love with them
