Does anyone still make 1" stems?

I'm trying to avoid a shim... I want a 1" steer tube stem with a 26.0mm clamp (90-100mm length). Does anyone know if you can still find these...? I saw the Cinelli Alter but the prices on those are ridiculous...

Cinelli Grammo is a beautiful 1" Titanium stem but I'm sure your wallet would be a lot light after you bought it.

Some old Kore stems are 1", as well as Salsa, they will be hard to find though and they might not be 26.0mm.

So basically does that mean "No, manufacturers no longer make 1" stems."?
Pretty sure that's the case. Dang you Kilo TT.. why must you have a 1" fork...

A harder question would be "Does anybody still make 1 1/8" quill stems?"

No, and that's pretty much what I'm saying.

There are a handful of NOS 3T Mutant stems on eBay, but the shortest is 110mm, and the only colors are silver and mucus yellow.

EDIT: Some of those stems are for 1 1/8" steerers.

I've got a 1 inch Thomson elite 90mm 26. Stem. I had it in my box o' parts. Put it on my Toyo, went onto their website...
They don't make it anymore. Strange.
