Umed ans Arred whether 2 post this cos not sure of the reaction 2 b honest

No pics sorry cos will b unveiled at MK pics after obviously

this thread is so peeps don't miss stuff like I have and wished I had seen at the MK show

First off is a stem that was modified by a local Bike shop owners best pal 4 his son bitd. Was used 4 racing bitd and is all restored now. It will b on 1 of my MRD Pro race bikes on show. This was in a terrible state all bashed up and a corner missing snapped off the base, covered in paint. lots of work later

Now the second is a right bugger up the back 2 b honest

bitd I fell in love with this stem and wanted 1 real real bad

Any how I contacted the guy who made them in his little Brit

workshop 2 b told they were no more and no plans 2 make anymore

That was the end of that till now. Noting the positive reaction Phil sawzall got when he had 2 replicate his SJK stem . He had no chance of finding 1 so he made it

top bollox it is aswell. I spent hours leafing through all my mags and finally found a tiny stamp sized piccy of the stem. Thats all I had 2 work from so blew it up and the plans were a foot . Its took me about 7 month all told taking my time but I have recreated the stem

It will b on my White MRD Badlander at MK if u fancy seeing something different . Must say a big thanks 2 Carl in2bmx 4 all his help with this

Oh and a certain person who gave me the inspiration 2 do this after 5 years of talking about it and never tracking 1 down . Cheers Buddy

this pic was the size of a stamp till I got my mate 2 blow and clean it up so I could work off it

Finished post MK show. the bike it was fitted on won its class so proper stoked

Looks much better in the flesh

Lovely bit of work there

We dont see enough home brew stuff on here, especially to that quality.
Seeing this has given me a kick up the arse to get a stem done i have had my eye on for ages.
Quite a bit more complicated than yours though
