A few years ago, I've held ITM Millenium stem and handlebars in my hands and decided I must get them one day. They're so light. The stem is 130mm in length.

Accompanying 46cm handlebar. The stem is 1 1/8", so a reducer shim has been used and assembled together with the fork.

Nothing to worry about though, as I managed to come across this nice little Pazzaz carbon aero seatpost with micro-adjust.

Selle Italia SLR XP. 165g of italian leather beauty. Much cheaper than a 135g SLR, but still as aerodynamic and as nice.
