random stem
I just got a stem put on my bike. All the guy at the shop could tell me was that it was an old vintage Italian stem, but he didn't remember the name of the brand. I can't remember where he said he got it, either.
It has two different "M"s on it. The one on the front is like _/\/\_ but smoother and more round, and the one on the back is kind of like \\\. The back one is white on red, and the front one is just black on the chrome of the stem.
I know that this is all a stretch, but does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

OK, I thought so, but couldn't for the life of me remember where I'd seen one.
It's a Modolo.
It's a Modolo.
