When I had my Surly built my lbs mentioned that maybe I would like to have the stem and seatpost by the same manufacturer. He couldn't find a silver Ritchey so I went with a silver Thomson stem. When we had our TE garage sale, I traded for a shorter black Thomson stem. Silver seatpost, black stem, definitely not a match. Is there some unwritten bicycle "bling" law that states my seatpost can't be silver if my stem is black? Very easy to switch my seatpost to a black one. They are all over the place. It was several years before I found out that it wasn't cool to keep the reflectors on your wheels.

You know, if this is my biggest problem in life...
