Hi
I'm awaiting delivery of a 2nd hand bob jackson vigorelli, 2 years old. The guy i got it off said he was using a 1 1/8th stem. I've been trying to find a nice 1 1/8th quill stem (old style, cinelli type) but can't seem to find anything other than really chunky MTB style things with industrial bolts everywhere. Am I being a complete noob or what?
The headset (shimano 1 inch, not sure what type yet) is a bit rough apparently so looking to replace that too, if that makes any difference.
Some tips on this would be appreciated by a novice like myself!
