Oh my - we get lots of requests for high quality French diameter (22.0 instead of typical 22.2) stems , but we rarely find any.  That just changed - we found some 80mm TTT examples.  These take 26.0 handlebars.  Some TTT stems actually are more like 25.8.  But these (at least what we measured) are really for 26.0.  So you can use nifty true 26.0 bars such as those in that size from Nitto.  The length is the very desirable 8cm.  So here is a great alternative to "shaving" a 22.2 stem to make it fit - this is factory ready!

 

The stem you get may have some shopwear.  But we photographed one that wasn't wrapped.  The one you get will be wrapped so it's likely to have fewer marks.  They all seem to have some residue on them that will polish up (don't do much, you don't want to bit into the anodizing).  Most stems that come onto the market in 22.0 French quill diameter are rather low quality.  Many period French stems were cast or made with other design flaws that make them rather unreliable.  TTT stems are much better quality.  (that said, TTT stems are not as good as Cinelli 1/A, but they are way better than almost everthing else out there).
