-17/73 degree stem!

JesseD

Hi all, I am hoping someone can help.

I want try a lower handlebar position on my bike, as I have become fitter I feel I can go lower.

At present the stem I have is -10/80 degree and I gave no spacers under it, so am looking for a decent -17/73 degree stem in 110mm length to fit 31.8mm bars.

Can't't find one anywhere, so am hoping one if you kind people can possibly help.

Thanks

3T Arx Pro, version I or II come in 17 degree with the original now rather hard to find.

Deda pista newton is another alternative. Bear in mind that a lower handlebar position is going to mean that the bars are further away from the saddle, so the reach will be longer.

If you want Merlin have them available, but if you want to try you could always get an adjustable stem from say Decathlon and then see if it works for you (about 25% of the price). If you need to go lower youcan then try that as well.

As other have said you will need to make sure you see how the reach is affected. FWIW Zipp now offer a 15 degree stem as part of their service course range if you do need to go lower

Thomson Elite X2 stems come in a 17 deg version too, and are very nice.

Thanks all, stopped off at my LBS and they happened to have a Felt variable degree one knocking about.
