Looking for a few items for a couple different builds.

- Nitto /Rivendell Albatross bars, preferably heat treated
- Nitto Technonomic quill stem, 120mm (planning on pairing these with the Albatross bars)
- Dura Ace 9 speed bar-end shifters

- Sim Works Rhonda stem, 100mm, polished

If you have any of this stuff shoot me an message, thanks!

Shifters have been sourced, thanks Lance! Still looking for the rest.

The heat treated Albatross bars, (or Nitto B352) and maybe some cork grips would be the next items at the top of my want/need list.

FWIW: The Soma Oxford is a good substitute for the Albatross. I got one when Riv was sold out of their Albatross. Nearly the exact same shape, takes bar ends. The only difference that I can tell is the rise is slightly less and the finish isn't quite as nice. Only $80 new, got to like that. Unfortunately only in black today, I wasn't able to add the silver to the basket.

I responded off list. I have cro-mo Albatross bars and a matching Nitto Technomic 120mm stem for $140 shipped.
