John,

would you mind measuring the height of your FW30 from the minimum insertion 
mark to the midpoint of the intersection between the stem shaft and the 
stem extension?

Many thanks.

2023-02-03 Thread Drew Henson 
old thread, but does anyone have one of thee laying around they'd be will 
to part ways with? i just got the riv faceplatter and it's about 15 cm too 
long and bottoms out on the steer tube leaving the bars just a touch high. 
this blue lug version would be perfecto. the MT-54 would be too short i 
think.

[RBW] Re: New Nitto x Blue Lug Power Stem

2022-04-08 Thread Johnny Alien 
I recently bought one of these and just received it. I love the Nitto 
MT-54S and this is indeed similar but it surpasses it in a few ways. 

   1. It has a little extra height. Not a ton but enough to give a little 
   more flexibility. Not a huge deal for me as I don't really need more height 
   but that will be a plus for many people.
   2. The faceplate on the Blue Lug version is a little cleaner and sports 
   the Nitto logo in a classy way. The MT-54S faceplate is nice and maybe even 
   a little fancier to look at but I prefer the one on this Blue Lug stem.
   3. These stems come in smaller sizes. The MT-54S stops at 80mm or 90mm 
   (I forget). I like the option to go shorter. In fact the whole reason I 
   went this way is because my new Clem is a long reach for me. I needed to 
   bring the bars closer than the stock 80mm Nitto allowed. Most options like 
   the MT-54S, the SimWorks stems, those new ones Rivendell sells or the Velo 
   Orange options stop at 80mm. Because of the rise it would have brought them 
   a bit closer than the stock stem but not by a whole lot.  I was able to get 
   a 70mm stem from Blue Lug. The Nitto Faceplatter is just too silly tall for 
   me.
   4. A really nice plus is that the stem cap can be replaced with the 
   options offered by Analog and SimWorks if you want to add a dash of color. 
   I think between those two sources you can get gold, red, green, black and 
   silver. I picked up a gold one. The new Rivendell stem might be able to do 
   the same thing I am not sure.

These remind of an updated version (faceplate + additional vertical

I definitely want to try this out in the near future.

[RBW] Re: New Nitto x Blue Lug Power Stem

2022-02-26 Thread Collin A 
While cool and useful, I think Nitto/others need to figure out a better 
method for welding/brazing the threaded portions of the stem face plate. 
Currently (sample size of 3 for me), each stem and set of threaded sections 
are all slightly different, meaning that if for some reason the faceplate 
gets damaged or lost, you can't just get another face plate and be 
guaranteed that it works on your stem.

Has anyone else noticed this or is it just my bad luck?

[RBW] Re: New Nitto x Blue Lug Power Stem

2022-02-26 Thread Johnny Alien 
The Riv Fillet Faceplater is WAY taller than this one. My main beef with 
Riv's stem offerings is that everything has massive height.  That's great 
when you have small headtubes and need to get the bars up but now that they 
have sloping top tubes and big headtubes I think they should offer some 
standard height stems.  I can't use anything they offer because I have to 
practically slam stems with their geometry.  I would love a fillet brazed 
stem like they sell but there is no way I could get it to work. The bars 
would end up way too high.

Woo!  I might just buy the FW30 for the Bombadil.  I do like the smooth 
fillets of the Riv version of this stem, but I'm somewhat between sizes on 
the Riv stems and this has exactly what I want (the 100mm, which will be 
around 90mm actual I believe). Thanks for sharing Eric!

Nice! It seems exactly like the MT-54S but maybe with a touch more height.  
The MT-54S is my favorite Nitto stem.
