my initial idea was that the stem would go on littleuns mongoose but its more of a bronze than the gold i was hoping for, the orginal rampar stem pad is for the single pinch early type clamp, i couldnt find an early rampar stem so opted for this to break up the white and black a tad , in the flesh i think it works well, but personal taste etc...

Nice work matey, i do like black / white. The bit of chrome brakes it up nicely. I agree with what's been said about the stem colour though :coolsmiley:

Looks good that  :daumenhoch: , as above the stem kinda jumps out & is the 400 decal on the forks on backwards ? . Perhaps Steve/Firebird could do you a stem pad ? .

this is partly another reason for the gold stem, the rampar started to look too similar to my kuwahara , re the 400 decal yes it is/was on upside down,removed after i took the picture, ive left the original tange 1200x decals on after all they arent the raleigh 400 forks anyway...
