1" threadless is a bit of an odd duck, since it wasn't around very long, and hasn't been used in a long time. You can also use a 1-1/8" stem, with a reducing sleeve. It's pretty common, and would open up a lot more stem and bar options since 1-1/8" is pretty much universal now.
The 3T Mutant came in a 1” threadless version that required no spacer for 25.4mm steer tubes.
