Product Description

Nitto MT-10 MTB Quill Stem | 25.4mm Clamp | Silver 

History

Nitto was founded in 1923 in Tokyo, Japan and is a Japanese manufacturer of bicycle components such as handlebars, stems, and seat posts. For some time now, Nitto has also been manufacturing other bicycle components such as bicycle racks. Various Nitto components are certified for track cycling races, and the company was one of the first to outfit the Japanese Keirin races.

Description

This dates back to when mountain bikes were first big in the 1980's and remains a good way of getting the bars up high.

Given its mountain bike roots the stem is built tough - forged and heat treated for durability.

Nitto made this stem to not only give people an option for a stem with maximum bar height and comfort, but also to make something that harks back to another time when mountain bikes were small frames with horizontal top tubes. These were designed by Nitto to make drop bars work with your small head tube MTB's.

Please note - this 10 cm extension version is smooth all the way up, whereas the 8 cm version has a step machined at the top of the shaft.
