Bikes: THE KIND WITH TWO WHEELS AND ONE GEAR
Okay, srsly. I was wondering if any one has any sort of expeience with them. Its got 100mm reach and looks kinda cool, kinda seemed like something worth trying out, I just wanted some feedback

if it can hold up to what the mtb guys do, im sure it'll be fine on a track bike. ive seen similar stems run on fixed gears before. i think it looks kinda goofy, but what ever gets you going. try it out, report back. its just a stem.

My wife has the Shorty stem on her mountain bike. Shorty comes in really short lengths is why. She likes it. Besides the clamp, I think they're 1-1/8", so you may need to run a shim if yer 1". Thomson makes nice shims.
Azonic is pretty well known for quality stuff, and that's technically a downhillers stem, so it will probably outlast you & your bike.
