My lack of headset knowledge naively assumed the internal diameter of the spacers would nicely fit on the 1" nitto quill adapter? But as you said seems like the chances of this working out are small. And there is also going to be a nasty junction between the locknut and the spacer.
Yeah BMX quill stem seems to be another good option. Just not into how skinny those quills look when poking so far out of the headtube, bit giraffe like. Although this is definetely the most economical option agreed.
Secondly could be leaning towards getting a 1" threadless fork instead, somehow always manage to naturally lean towards the more expensive option....

So this innicycle adapter should do the job really? without the fuss...?

Have a very ugly quill stem adapter on a current Muddyfox Pathfinder MTB (image below). Am looking to go full Stridsland and convert this into a build with a bmx stem and a set of the Anchor Bars I have.
Issue is im 6'4" so need the height of the quill stem adapter to be raised, but hate the look of them. Ideally i'd buy a quill stem adapter like this and run a load of spacers on it to achieve a similar look to this
a) is this even doable?
b) what size spacers would I need? 1" ?
c) do i need a different headset altogether to run the spacers neatly from the top cover?I know it's probably a dumb idea and totally unnecessary, but i'm into the freak build.

d) is there a better / alternative way of achieving this look?

Hi mate sorry this is now sold.
I reckon can get the spacers and nitto stem adapter to work nicely. Is there anyway of getting a cleaner finish on the locknut? This Nitto cable hanger looks pretty smart, but guessing it would still have to sit inbetween the locknut?
