All stems have your bars go in front of the fork tube. Why?
What if they made one like this:

Well, I found this:
I just fired up the cnc and came up with this:
I can whip you up one form $75, hand numbered and painted any color Krylon makes. Let me know.

Awesome.
I would definetly try it out if I had some spare cash.
I wonder what I would feel like riding something with that...

Have fun with that, hahaha.
Azonic made one of those back in the day, too.
I imagine it would feel pretty bizarre. With the bar sweep it would put your grips behind the steering axis.

Its called a zero offset stem and its truly dumb. Don't get one unless you plan on riding nothing but flatland. It kills your leverage and a lot of steering feel. Why would you ever suggest such a thing? While your at it grab this for precise steering and the best street steeze EVAH!

Sorry my friend rides flatland and his bike is dumb, I had to vent, the only thing more useless you could buy is a mod trials bike.

Actually, the only thing more useless than any of the things you listed would be if you continue talking.
Zero offset stems have their places, albeit not something you see commonly. Vast majority of bike applications your front end would become twitchy as hell.
And mod bikes are damn fun. You've obviously never ridden one. Or you have ridden one, and were horrible at it
That thing is really cool looking!You might as well use this
Or a mountain board?
