How common were the Salsa track stems? Were they a special order thing?

powder coat doesnt look that much different. Its just hardcore durable. It wont come off or scratch. Google it.

jchou701 02-12-07 06:25 PM

isn't there another type of paint though - how much would powder coating a stem cost

deathhare 02-12-07 06:40 PM

Where i come from in the states, powder coating something that small would be very cheap. In the bay area everything costs 2 times more. I lived there for 5 years and am moving back this summer. See ya there. :)

I don't think they were widely available. I was told the track specific ones were actually made by Waterford. Ceya probably knows more about this. Ceya?

Yeah. I've heard that some of the steel SUL quill stems were made by Waterford too. Maybe I'll post something in C&V about it.

Cool. I'd love to follow to know more about it. For what it's worth, it's an amazing stem. Big, beefy, really stiff. It's great.
