Just as well ... you'd have got a few other answers (Thomson, Easton etc) but those are the only 2 that I know that would do a blue stem. The SS one would do it for me. Heard lots of good things about their Zephir (black with blue face) and, like much of what they do, it's cheaper

Funny enough I put same request on another forum and a fella said the Zephir flexes? I am taken by the Zephir, it does look very neat.

I search Thompson as they do good stuff and found they do a black stem and you can buy a blue face plate. So Im opting for one of those.

ahh the stem face and top cap kit... makes for an expensive solution though at £20+ plust the cost of the stem.

Very nice though. I have an Elite seatpost and it's top quality kit. The paint coat is indestructable.

It is pricey but I have some spare cash by not buying a new bike and just updating an old one wink
