Might want shorter than 50mm with the new bars, but sizes less than 50mm don't seem as popular as those longer, in the budget category at least. I thought it was all about the tiny stems these days?

I'm loving my 35mm El Guapo Corto combined with my 747mm Knuckleball, shortest stem I've ever had by some margin (by reach, my On One 80mm 35 degree was next shortest). £21 at the mo.

I had a 35mm Uno 3D which cost me about £13, it seemed perfectly decent tbh... Bontrager do a 40mm that you can pick up for £30, there's a few others... But stubby stems do sometimes go really burly too so some of the inexpensive options are pretty weighty

Funn funnduro is short and cheap, spank do lots of short stems, Hope 35mm is lovely.

I saw Uno stuff on eBay, but I'm a bit leary of ordering bargain parts on eBay that I've not heard of...

I think the On One is probably my best option anyway.

Yeah, I'll be honest, it felt like a wee bit of a gamble... But stems are basically pretty simple, it just felt like any other genericky superstarry zoomy type stem in use. And tbh I'd rather trust ebay randoms than On One...

Raceface blamed a Funnduro for mangling my mate's bars. No idea if that was actually fair or not though.
