Item Condition

I grade products as honestly as possible and depict blemishes in both description and photos—please study them carefully. I tend to be overcritical and customers report items to be in better shape than expected often. From best condition to worst condition, my grading scale is as follows. Mint / near mint+ / near mint / excellent+ / excellent / great / very good / average / fair.

Description

This rare stem was displayed on a show bike, and was never ridden.  This Ahead version of Doug Bradbury's heavily milled out and boxy stem was produced in fairly low numbers right after the rights to the Manitou name were bought by Answer (roughly 1993-1996 production?).  It came only in 120mm and 140mm, and 1" & 1 1/8" only.  Cool finishing touch for your early to mid 1990's retro mountain bike or that late generation Manitou FS.

Condition

Mint, mounted but never ridden. It's only wear is the slightest scuff at the forward-most spot on the bar clamp.  No decal wear.  As clean as if it were NOS.  Good enough for any show bike.
