granted.
But this bike and seller are in San Ramon, CA and there are many well-stocked shops in the area.
Heck, there are many well-stocked C&Vers in the area who probably have a better stem in their garages right now (maybe even me!)
So if any local C&Ver buys this Pinarello and has trouble sourcing a decent stem to replace that stop-gap-temp-solution atrocity...just PM me.
