Does anyone know what year the round back/rounded top cap DK stems come out?  I have a "Pro" size one which seems pretty short reach to me, shorter than a Suntour Powerstem at least but need to know what year  :daumenhoch:

Cheers

Marty :)

Marty,

I think the rounded baseplate was from 88, this also for the top plate for the pro-sized stems too. However, the mini stems always had rounded top plates even when running with the 3 sided baseplate.

So 81 - 88 all sharp edges for pro sizes up

81-88 rounded top for mini
88 onwards rounded top and base for all!
