Looks like 0 degrees, can be used for both. Road usually have a negative angle and mountain a positive one (6 to 15).

Road handlebar have 26 mm grip and mountain 25.4.

is there any specific things psychically form the stem that could pointed out wheter is it a mtb or road?
cause if its a road my handlebar would be a bit loose due to the clamp size differences...
please kindly advice..

That is correct. By the look of the photo of the bar clamp area it certainly looks like an MTB version at 25.4mm.
These are beautiful and pretty rare titanium stems, I have a very similar one.

Hi,

probably a little late to the party on this one, but it's worth looking at the Ibis section in the retrobike archive for info on their stems. Several of the brochures have all the details you'll need.

Hii Matt,
totally fine, appreciate your thoughts..
regards
 
Yep, mountain version

Also, IMHO one of the nicest stems ever made, too bad it does not incorporate front brake cable support, I have one on my Bianchi MTB

Check out this writeup from Bicycle guide in 1992, it was made in-house by Ibis and sold for $235USD BITD
