Is there a waiting list or a way to pre-order?

We definitely need the seat clamps as well, even in the 1-1/4". The stem is an exciting piece of art.

I was wondering why mine was still so shiny . Cleaned it up last night and its a mirror .
GR8BNDINI
A man working at my LBS said these drop this weekend. True or misinformation? scratch_one-s_head.gif
MadCowboy
Judging by the reaction here, they will sell out quick and realize the money to be made and make more.

or at least I can hope worried_anim.gif
mushroomgrips
I always loved these DK stems! Don't know why they stop making good designs like this one.
dayride
Got mine today and got in installed on my Kappa. It looks great. True quality DK craftmanship. Pics will come later.

Even cooler it comes in retro packaging.
seracingman
Where can we get one
sack
must have stem now
Brandon002
how about an inverted model?
dayride
Here are some pics. I got lucky my LBS is 1/2 hour away from DK. One of the guys picked me up one at the vendors event this weekend. I have another on order. I made it down there Sat for the Dirt Circut to watch the pros tear it up good time.










It is so shiny it was hard to get a good pic without a reflection.
ricksimpson
tell your shop to order now...............these will go quick

i have no local bike shop so hoping maybe i can contact j&r bmx (the site sponsor here) and have them order me one.

what size is yours? 53mm or 55mm,etc?? just curious if they come in pro xl 55mm like they used too.

thanks for the help smile.gif

Yes dealers attending our event did receive one as a gift. But the retro dk stem is also available for purchase (through dealers).
