In what can only be described as an anti-bianchi hate crime, both mine and my wife’s bianchis had parts stolen while parked in what we felt would be a safe and discreet bike room. No other bikes were tampered with. She had her saddle taken and as you can see, my handlebars and stem were decapitated from my beloved pista. Luckily they are all fairly inexpensive parts and can easily be replaced but I still can’t but help feeling violated. Recommendations for 1” treadless stems are appreciated

What do you mean by a “bike room”? Did someone break into your home?
Look up some older profile design 1″ stems or 3ttt Mutant
There’s also the shogun zero crmo stem but it is for mtb
Synchros is rare but they have made amazing stems (also for mtb but then have amazing designs)
X-Tasy has some cheaper examples
Modolo pilot and the cinelli one are very similar to each other
Look second hand!
Ugh that sucks.
honestly just get a 1 1/8″ stem with a shim. That’s what I did. Sorry about the parts!
It’s prob going to be easier to get rid of this and start over. I’d be happy to take one for the team and pay shipping to take it off your hands
You can always upgrade to a 1 1/8″ stem by using a spacer. You’ll have more stem options.
They really did a number on the brakes. They took everything, even the rotors and cables.
At least you still have the frames!
Ppl are such shit.
I sometimes get weird looks when I look at ppls rides locked up but I’m not a thief I’m just checking out their rides.
