That particular bike (the owners bike, that has a few other "custom" tidbits) is a threaded one, but yes, the Nor'easter is a threadless bike. I wonder if these are done in conjunction with Analog based on the (W)right stems? I think they were the re-instigiators of the minimal offset stems. htt

You can order direct from GB, and with the current exchange rate it's actually cheaper to order through them than through a distributor. It will probably take longer to get the saddle, though. On Thursday, April 11, 2019 at 9:48:25 AM UTC-7, Chris Birkenmaier wrote: > > Thanks for the info on t
