Back from Japan with a fresh Nitto stem + bar.
Ride feels great, super comfy… but I can’t tell if the stem throws off the lines of the frame or if it actually works.
Kinda conflicted on the look – what do you all think?
Bro steel lugged frameset look so friggin tuff man why did they stop making em 🤧

Stem kinda long…

Personally I think it looks a bit off, but only because the stem is so high.

I have these same bars on my NJS Panasonic.
I agree, it’s not the bars it’s the stem that looks off.
You ever see one of those video where a dog has tree branch in its mouth that is way too big? Imagine if a Giraffe did …..now look at your stem/ handlebar combo.
