** X-Lite L168 Stem and Top Cap **

[velofrog]

I love these, have had loads over the years.

Saw this advertised on here and snapped it up with the matching top cap.

But… It’s blue, so not my favourite colour…
I don’t have a bike to use them on…
And now I’ve realised the packets have never been opened…

This I guess is the definition of impulse!

No clue what I’m gonna do with them, but here are a few pics regardless!

Should I open them or not….?

Could find someone to cerakote it and make it a colour I like, and maybe find some wide 25.4 bars and use it on my Stooge build….

No! sell them to me for '£60' ..i've been on the hunt for a 115mm for years

 

[velofrog]

Ha!! Nice try!

Yeah the 115mm seem to be harder to come by.

PM me if you’re seriously interested though

 

[Betsy]

Quite.. I would only strip the ano so probably wasted on me

Use them.

Don't be one of those NIB farts.

Either use it or sell it to Betsy and let him have some caustic fun.

That’s it, sacrilege… she’s out her box!

Nice blue actually. Would look really good on a polished bare alu frame with a similar blue post and chainring

 

[velofrog]

Exactly like this then….
