Wack a pro neck or tuf neck on it.
Failing that a copy suntour or summat.

I've had a Genuine mallet stem without the potts mod bolt came on an  complete 83 GT Pro survivor  ::)

So I expect they brought it out as a race version and a freestyle version


Bung on  any of the ones already mentioned  by Daz and Jase  :)

yep i own that stem now  ;) the mallet came out in 85 and there was 2 versions race and freestyle  :daumenhoch:

standard stem for an 84 would have been a tuf neck or sr depending what model bike  :daumenhoch:
