I love it. I am going to use the Nitto Fairweather Bullmoose handlebar (TIGd) for the front, so this will end up basically matching it in style. I have some Cro-Mo Albatrosses also. On Wednesday, April 12, 2017 at 1:49:05 PM UTC-4, Bill Lindsay wrote: > > I love the bullmoose stoker stem that mo

I am just guessing about this, but to my eye it looks like an existing Cromo Albatross probably will not fit on this stoker stem. The bulge part on a Cro-Mo Albatross is pretty narrow. The two clamps of this bullmoose stoker stem look pretty wide. It is my guess (and it is only a guess) tha

Hi Bill, "Folks who want to run a particular stoker bar that might not be the right diameter for two clamps at that width." Would the stoker stem work with Bosco? or Albatross? or Choco? Aren't those bars less than 25.4mm diameter (away from the central stem area)? Thanks, Shoji "who's also wa

Shoji asked what bars would fit that stem. I'm expecting to use the bar that Grant planned on me using. I am not expecting to pull a bar from my pile. I believe that all the bars you listed are not going to fit, because the bulged part is too narrow. We will all see at the end of the month

I was thinking that the clamps were on the non-bulged portion of the bar, therefore not requiring a special handlebar. On Wednesday, April 12, 2017 at 3:37:10 PM UTC-4, Bill Lindsay wrote: > > Shoji asked what bars would fit that stem. > > I'm expecting to use the bar that Grant planned on me

That's what it looks like to my tired ol' eyes. You can kinda see the underside of the sleeve, and the clamps are on either side. Bars look like maybe flipped Chocos, i.e. with a positive rise? HT sticker on left side gives more clues. Dunno. Jeff Hagedorn Los Angeles, CA USA On Wednesday, Apr

The stoker stem works with bosco bars (in stock) and with an incoming newer Choco bar that we are getting in mid May. Same as the other chocos but the clamp sleeve is longer to accommodate the double clamps. Current chocos don't have a wide enough clamp area. -Dave On Wednesday, April 12,
