Nitto Technomic NTC-225

This stem is designed for standard 22.2 mm quill steerer tubes, which are common on most vintage steel road bikes. Before purchasing, verify your bike's steerer tube diameter to ensure compatibility, as some older French or specialized bikes use different sizing.

No, this stem features a 25.4 mm handlebar clamp diameter. It is intended for traditional, smaller-diameter handlebars and will not accommodate modern oversized bars without a shim, which is generally not recommended for this specific stem type.

The extended quill length is a key feature of the Technomic design, allowing you to raise your handlebars significantly higher than a standard quill stem. This is ideal for riders looking to achieve a more upright, comfortable position on a bike that might otherwise feel too aggressive.

No, this is a classic quill stem design without a removable faceplate. You will need to slide your handlebars through the clamp, which means you must remove your grips, brake levers, and shifters to install or swap the bars.

No, the stem has a fixed angle of -18 degrees. While you cannot adjust the angle, the extended quill allows for height adjustment, which effectively changes your reach and stack height to help you find a comfortable fit.
