Here is a picture and description of the item, new:
http://harriscyclery.net/itemdetails.cfm?ID=418
"These are beautiful, Japanese-made forged aluminum stems with an extra tall column (225 mm overall.) Not as flexible as you were when you bought your bike? Want a more upright position without sacrificing the versatility of your drop bars? This is the ticket! These allow you to raise your handlebars about 2 1/2" higher than traditional stems."
My used stem is the 26mm clamp, which fits most modern road bikes. I used it only for about 6 months- it has very slight wear that is typical for that amount of usage. Not only can it be adjusted taller than usual, but this is a short reach stem of 50mm that brings your handlebars closer to you in addition to raising them higher. The reach proved to be just a bit too short for me, so I wound up buying a 70mm instead.
It's a very handsome and beautifully made stem, especially appropriate for 'retro look' bikes. Here is a photo of one in use:

My 50mm stem is shorter reach than the one pictured, but you get the idea.
I'm selling the stem for $45 which includes standard shipping that I will pay to anywhere in the continental U.S.
No returns, no overseas/international.
Paypal payment only. Thanks!
I am selling two other bike items- will give small additional discounts for buying more than one item together.
