Stem ID....
Came off a '79 Holdsworth Professional, though with the rest of the components being a mix-and-match of Suntour & Campy I think it was purchased originally as a frameset. Bars with it are Ambrosio. No markings other than the length. Not really important, just curious what it is.....
Ah, never mind- I think it's also Ambrosio & the name has worn off....

for us trivia buffs: did Ambrosio transition to become 3TTT (Torino Tubi Techo or whatever the 3 "T"s stand for)?
I seem to recall hearing that story...
Nice looking stem and the "capsule" shaped divot on the quill that has the size cast-in was something many 3TTT stems also featured.

Makes sense as the bars are Ambrosio.

I'm hoping I'll be able to still use this stem when I complete the build- it'll be pretty close as to whether it's a bit too short.....
