  1. I have some MTB stems I want to sell on eBay, and I see that the other stems listed there have a
    length, usually in mm. My questions is: What two points on the stem must I measure between to know
    this dimension?

    What other things are necessary for me to know to spec the stem?

    Thanks,

    Adam

    There is no real standard for this, i usually asume the length is the distance center-center along
    the stem but some manufacturers measure it different.

    The angle of the stem, steererclamp diameter and steerertube diameter. Maybe also things like
    weight, material, number of bolts etc.
