Looking for a 140 mm, 17° stem for a 1 1/4" steerer tube

Looking for a stem with specs as noted above, and Google isn’t turning up much.

Zipp Service Course SL OS, FSA SL-K SCR and Giant Contact SL OD2 are possibilities, but have a max 10° angle.

I was hoping that with Giant, Canyon and Scott all using 1 1/4" steerers, it would be possible to source this part. Any tips appreciated!

Ritchey… edit… oh these only go upto 130mm…

Depending on budget… have you considered contacting a frame builder?

Im building up a scott foil now and just going to use a ritchey shim to use the cockpit i want

I don’t have particularly odd body measurements. While I wouldn’t have been comfortable with this reach a few years ago, it’s fair to say that my bike is probably just a size too small. Might be an idea for the future though,

Ah, the Foil has a steerer tube narrower than a standard 1 1/8" stem?

yes. which is funny because i had an old addict which was a pain in the ass because of its 1 1/4 oversized steerer

Have you considered a 130mm stem and finding handlebars with an additional 10mm reach?
For example, Bontrager Pro VR-C, have 100mm reach but maybe you’ve maxed out here already.

That’s actually a really good idea. Unfortunately, I had a couple of limiting criteria for the bar I wanted, and ended up with one with 70 mm reach. Current bar has 75 mm, with a 130 mm stem (in fact, the Ritchey one you suggested earlier!). Hence I’m relying on the stem part of that equation now for length, to be within 10 mm of the right fit.

Again, thanks for your help. This sort of question tends to be terribly specific and boring to everyone, except the person asking it.
