cheap aheadset 1 1/8" stem wanted in the UK
« on: August 11, 2005, 10:04:58 pm »
Hi,
   anyone have an alloy aheadset 1 1/8" stem around 120-130mm long with between a 7-10 deg rise and fairly shallow steerer clamp height? I currently have a Truvativ Wavo XC Stem (5deg 120mm):



And  need a slightly higher rise and perhaps a little more reach.

cheers

Hiya,
      cheers Simon. Well put it this way, new I paid £11 for the Truvativ. Don't want anything special or expensive. Just the right dimensions. Could you find out if it is 7d? [smiley=bomb.gif]eg. I am hoping for between 7 and 10deg as the 5deg isn't suffcient.
How much you want for yours inc P&P? What brand?

cheers
