BLB Lil Quill Stem Black 60mm

Do you have an older steel bike with a threaded 1-inch fork and want to bring the handlebars a little closer? The BLB Lil Quill 60 mm is a simple and affordable solution. Its short length works well on older road, track and city bikes where a long classic stem gives you a more stretched-out position than you want.

The Lil Quill has a traditional design with a 22.2 mm shaft that extends into the steerer tube and is secured with an expander wedge. The stem is made of aluminum, and the black finish works well on both clean fixed-gear builds and older bikes where you want to combine classic standards with a slightly more understated look.

The handlebar clamp diameter is 26.0 mm, but the clamp can also be tightened around handlebars with a 25.4 mm diameter. This makes it useful with many older road, track and city handlebars, where both dimensions are common. Check both the handlebar diameter and that the bike has a threaded 1-inch fork before ordering.

This version is 60 mm long and provides a shorter reach than the Lil Quill 80 mm. Choose 60 mm when you want to bring the handlebars closer and achieve a slightly more upright position, or when the geometry of an older frame simply works better with a shorter stem.
