At the moment its between a thomson, hope, crank bros, or back to the cheap and cheerful pro frs

Can thomson/hope be had for less than £50 anywhere?

Anything else to take into account? Will be on a heckler if thats of any consequence

Superstar £45 with red face plate

Or the same stem all in black from On One for £35.

Cheapest Thomson is Merlin I think, even 2nd hand they go for about £40.

I know what you mean, I have the Superstar as it was on sale and the GF got me it. Wanted the On One (as it is going on a C456) but was £70 at the time. It goes with my colour scheme (mainly black with some small red touches) but i might spray the front a black/grey.

Wish I had gone Thomson tbh as I have a Thomson post.

How about an Easton one?
