Does anyone know where I can get a 50mm stem that's not very tall because my steerer tube is quite short? At the moment I have a 'Truvative Team' stem that has only one bolt so if I get a stem with the usual 2 bolts it needs to be low profile. I saw a Kore stem on another thread but it wouldn't fit my oversized bars. Cheers.

dangerboy have very low stack stems around 30mm, i was going to buy one for my short totem steerer tube but decided to face the head tube down on the frame instead.
Travativ XR is 35mm and because of the single bolt steerer clamp, particularly suited to short steerer lengths.

(it's not a road stem - just incorrectly labelled)
Jut bought one of the XR's off the classifieds for exactly that purpose!
The XR has a stack height of slightly more than 35mm (more line 38mm), but does the job.

Thanks it looks good. I've been very pleased with my Truvative Team stem (80mm). Very lightweight and stiff. I was hoping to get something around 50mm though but could go for the 60mm maybe.
