** X-LITE L168 and ANGELO stems **

[velofrog]

ok, so i have a bit of a "thing" for these

just bought a mint one on the Bay...... but i don't need it :facepalm:

been trying to figure in my head when these came out, i reckon about 1996, anyone know?

this is about my sixth or seventh one of these, but i reckon i'll keep this one now, might use it, might just use it as an ornament!

Re:

cool! thanks lads!

thought it was around 96, but 94 fits, the older i get the harder it is to think back!

like i said, i've had a few over the decades, the shorter ones seem less common though, but long stems were more the trend back then i guess, the opposite of modern bike these days which seem to be running short stems and wide bars......

here are a few of mine:
