Best/nicest threadless stem for C&V?
 

Just got in a Thompson X2 in silver and hate it.
Looking for a new stem.


Anything else out there that's nice? or closest to a quill stem look?
Silver, shiny? No BBQ black or painted.


Besides the usual VO or nitto offerings?

Ritchey Classic is a nice one, too.

Cinelli Grammo....though they don't fit modern bars.

This is a Nitto, but it's the nicest imo and comes in a hard to find 1".

MT-31 SIDE CLAMP STEM by NITTO

Just throwing another (inexpensive) one out there: The Origin8 "Pro Fit Alloy Ergo Stem" comes in polished silver.

It's not cheap but there's also the (made by Nitto) Compass 1 1/8 stem. https://www.compasscycle.com/shop/co...readless-stem/

It kind of seems like the VO, SOMA, Origin 8 and Ritchey stems are made by the same factory, with varying degrees of finish. I have a VO stem and it looks quite nice in person, but it's still not particularly reminiscent of a quill stem. You might need to go with cr-mo for that.
