Thomson elite is pricey, any others?
never heard the mantra "strong, light, cheap - pick two"?
Thomsons aren't light fwiw
Got a 50mm Easton havoc in the shed that I don't use anymore if your interested.
Khani- spot on!
Jam bo- I'm going to try a 60mm Easton vice, to see how the length feels.
If I think I can go 50mm I'll give you a shout.
It weighs a ton so looking for lighter.
Thanks
theres a thomson x4 50mm stem in the classifieds, listed 20mins ago
havoc is much lighter than the vice.
On the basis i was experimenting with differnet stem lengths i got an 80mm one of these from superstar for £13.

My problem now is that I am more than happy with the length and it is not heavy by any stretch so how do I justify upgrading it.
Ps I have an Easton ea70 110mm in the classifieds.
there is a point1 one on ebay just now.
The vice is 260 grams on the kitchen scale, most others are way lighter.
Anyway, trying the set up on Wednesday with the wider bars.
Should be fun trying to get through Cannock with 711 bars.
gusset do an oversize one that comes with shims to take it down to 25.4. I got one for about 30 quid off crc
Nice one
