How about a clamp like on the Eastern Deceptikon stem? It works well, and you don't have the exposed bolts at the rear of the stem. I ran one for over a year with no slipping issues. And on the off chance your stem twists to the side, you don't have to mess with your handlebar clamp to get everything loosened up to put it back in the correct position.

The only problem with that is it would impead on the side cutouts. Ive never ran a wedge type setup before, are there many issues with them? From what i gather, I'd spend more time tryin to make one work VS makin some that I know will work.

Look at the S&M redneck flt, odyssey elementary v3, i have a Zion and I believe the new odyssey Chad hawk stem is a wedge style
The deceptikon stem is really cool, especially if you could camouflage the side bolt

That's great looking. I think the GT Wings would look great!

I agree, wings would be great.  I would buy one.  cool

WOW $400, that's insane.
Stems are in the works but paint or powder wouldn't. That would be on whoever.

Re: repro 1 1/8" GT mallet? just a question, NOT AN ANNOUNCEMENT

not sure just yet. as many as needed i guess. the one i've started on has been done manually. if its cost effective to get in a cnc production then labor, machine time, material, shipping....all come into play. I'm not out to gouge anyone on the price. I'll keep the thread updated.
Please keep the pm's on hold till then.
Cheers,
Todd

the asking price was too much since they're only three that was made.. so hopefully yours will be in the $50-$60 range or less lol

Re: repro 1 1/8" GT mallet? just a question, NOT AN ANNOUNCEMENT

kind of glad I asked now. I'd be happy to "test" a wedge prototype if you decide to trial some.
But would be perfectly happy with a steer tube bolt version too. Just keep the coin please

Re: repro 1 1/8" GT mallet? just a question, NOT AN ANNOUNCEMENT

Just wanted to get an idea of how many people were interested in getting one of these so I could get an estimate on cost.
just quote a +# in sequential order. If there's a +1 then make it a +2, a +4 then make it a +5, so on and so forth. Ill start with a +0.


+0
