Would it be possible to take the stock BikeE stem (with the welded on handlebar), fill it with sand and bend it in a pipe bender? I ask because I'd like to bring the handlebars about 3" closer to me so I can recline more fully.
Or--if the above is a dumb idea (and probably is) does anyone know what gauge and type of tubing the stock BikeE stem is made from? I am too broke right now to go for the more elegant CalhounCycles solution.
Maybe you could find a bent stem on eBay - I've seen a good bit of BikeE stuff there . . .
