Just bought my lad a Haro Pro XL, its had some gentle upgrades, bombshell carbon forks, dialled bars, funn chainring. DXR brakes

But the stem is this hideous lump of black, very unattractive to look at and in comparision to the rest of the bike, probably makes up most of the weight!!!!!!!!!

So whats out there and looks cool? He will be 11 and in his words 'its gotta look pimp pappa!!'

Have you got anything i could tempt you to part with

Cheers Jay

CIARI stems are the nuts, available through custom riders.

Not heard of those. I have however bought a colony stem off pickle now, as my lad likes colony stuff

nice stem, but none about at the time and my lad doesnt really know who s&m are and none of his do either so he doesnt get bragging rights at school!!!! He's all about being cool and name dropping
