Thoughts on this?



Pretty?
Nice?
It's just a stem, don't pay $130 for it?
Bullcrew would sell his 2010 model to pimp the 2011 version so it must be great?


I just ordered a Sunline 50mm stem for my trail bike. It matches the paint job and it was cheaper than a Thomson and about the same weight. I'm thinking of returning it and that this might be the next best thing to a gold-tooth for my bike.

anyone know if they are anodized or painted? the neon looks like paint. these non-neon colors look ano, particularly since the pinch plates match.

Is it a wedge design? I had a Thomson stem on a slalom bike that had the wedge design and it would never stay tight...

I've heard that before. It seems odd, and I've never had that probem when running a Thomson.

FYI - I decided I couldn't wait, so I opened up the Sunline and slammed it on the rig and now there is no returning it. 50mm of goodness... though it almost wouldn't fit over the steer tube (think the shop's cut on it may have been a little sloppy). It is just a stem.
