Yes TJ, Blindingsun is right.... You have the street stem.



Note the distance between the fork bolt and where the handlebar clamp is....

Flat stem

Street stem

the street stem is 48mm, and yours is not the flatland stem, you just have to look at it...

your bars would be just nearly touching the fork bolt...

TJ thats like 3 people that have reinforced what i said, You do NOT have the flatland stem there is way to much room between the bolts, & Thanks to the guy that actually posted photos of the 2 stems so people dont have to look at my link.

Yes thank you all mighty wise one.

If you noticed I wasn't trying to refute whether or not I had the street stem, I just wanted to know the length.

Either way, it works perfect for me.

Yeah WTH, Big People – Big Stems, so the bike doesn't look tiny on you.

You dont have to call me all mighty wise one, Jon will do.

Btw. you said it was the flatland one, & all i was trying to do was tell you it wasnt and you were sold the wrong thing.

Riding a 28 mm stem is impossible for me. It feels way too cramped and it doesn't offer the same kind of "whip" that I like on my tricks. I've actually noticed in my most recent videos that my riding has gotten smoother since i've switched to the KHE stem.  I don't understand the idea of riding such small stems in the first place. Just doesn't offer enough room.

so if thats the case? why are you so bothered that you bought the Street one, and tryed so hard to convince us you had the flatland one?

why cant you just accept that you are not always right?

Coming from a guy who has been openly joked on for only being able to do ****ty backwards steamroller links despite spending your life on here antagonizing mutt...

That don't carry too much weight. And it's not like that "street" stem is effecting MY links all that much.
