I forget what they are called (they are Nitto track bars), but you have yourself a gem and very rare to find

AX something? Or something like that. They're Nitto and rare. Nitto had a specific open face stem for them too.

The bars are Nitto ADB X. The stem that accompanies them is the Nitto Crystal Blue.

typically nitto's heat treated alu bars are sleeved, which is the 'spacer' in the photos with those bars mounted up in the stem. it's not an extra piece. i don't know what's up with the other set, it looks like either the sleeve was removed somehow, or they were clamped in a wide stem like a thomson elite and just rubbed clean on either side by hands.

without looking at the markings it's hard to say whether those are a version of nitto ADB-X or a copy.

OK, it was removed by the guy that I got them from, told me it was a scraped up mess so he removed it with a Dremel, THATS why they don't fit my stems! I guess I'll get one of those adaptors/spacers to get them to fit on the stem. BTW thanks to all for the info!

Nah, my daughter was watching some movie about a college band or some ****? although I sometimes think that Vin has a bit of African in him (nothing wrong with it, just sayin') it wasn't him, def a black dude though.
