Stem and Bar..

The handlebar was the easiest of all choices. I had immediately been very happy with the FSA Vero Compact 44mm on my new Wilier, had Tecnos 1 equipped with it as well, so Tecnos 2 would be having FSA number 3. A perfectly well designed handlebar in simple aluminum, very convenient, comfortable and affordable. The stem had to be searched for however. I wanted it black showing the Colnago logo. Not easy to find new, but I finally ran into an advertisement in Hungary, where I had found the seat post at the same time; https://www.velossimo.hu/ which proved to have quite a range of new Colnago parts.

Dealing was easy via the webshop and delivery fast. The stem set had 2 bushings and 2 stem caps, of which the plain straight cap found its place on Tecnos 1. There also was a sloping cap to be combined with the other bushing, which had an oblique bored shank allowing the stem to be placed horizontally, or pointing upward. In my case, horizontal was the choice. An ingenious system. I had the bare metal bolts on the handlebar clamp replaced with black.  What was left to look out for were handlebar tape and caps. So that was it.. I had all the major parts now.
