Nitto t19 bullhorns, the unicorn of fixed gear

Does these things actually exist outside of obscure japanese language web pages?

they are chopped b123s. BUT the anodizing and chop came from nitto direct. also T19 was engraved into the components

crystal stems + seatposts + t19 riser + t19 bullhorns, all had the T E E 19 logo

the bars came in the odd sizes like 35, 37.

and to the OP

YES they do exist outside of japan. there are couple guys from the cali boards who had* these. and there was even one set forsale recently. from LA.



seems like LA has them, JUN had a black t19 stem and seatpost on his reminton
example of stem.

THIS is the TRUE UNICORN of njs and track parts imho....

cinelli njs stem and cinelli njs bars as seen on dubteka's campy njs X samson...

the ONLY other pictures i've seen of the setup is on kalavinka's website..... i believe there was also a stem forsale on yaj...but these are possibly the only ones stateside...
