Go to my photo site for this stem and bars:

Titanium stem, 15cm crafted by Pino Maronni for Mike Neel. Mike used this when he won the National pursuit title in '73 and/or '74. Both vertical and horizontal stiffening tubes welded into the stem. Etching is "Detroit" "PINO""U.S.A.". TTT Superleggero bars with original tape. One Cinelli bar end plug.

Put this on your seventies Eisentraut track and be the only one on your block.

The stem and bars are priced at $225; this included shipping to any US continental destination.

Something I just remembered about Neel, his first race as an European pro was the World Championship Road Race. It was 165 miles long; he placed tenth. Mike told me that there was a lot of jersey pulling in the last few hundred meters. Those placing ahead of him in the small group sprint included Eddy Merckx.
