My M5 Low Racer has a 127˚ stem, which means it's pretty much in line with the front frame tube (I think this was the default type for Low Racers). I'm looking to buy a 120˚ one (either quill or Ahead type), which brings the handlebars down a bit. Also more than happy to swap if anyone is interested; I'm in Bath if you want to compare before committing.

127˚quill stem


120˚quill stem


Ahead stem


Also looking for a plain boom as I'm not currently using a front derailleur. Ø42mm, shortened no problem, but minimum length 30cm please. Not too fussed about condition and colour. No swaps as I'm keeping the current one in case I want to use the bike on the road again at some point.
