    more stems in 31.8

    if you’re buying anyway then it’s gotta be 31.8

    I switched to OS bars when I built my bike. Means my lights can now be swapped without changing clamps and can switch stems and bars between bikes when / if I want to. They also feel like they twist less when hammering in the drops

    I went oversized so that stems inky spares box can be used on road or mountainbikes.
