I've ordered one now. Are yours 31.8?? I had a couple of spare but they aren't 31.8s

Different sizes though. I actually have a few spare stems but none of the face plates fit the nut configuration or the handlebar diameter. I even took it to the LBS but he didn't have any suitable ones either

Just contacted MrCummings see if he can recommend a good optician Suggested that ride or drive to some place called Barn yard castle at least that’s what he thought the sign said.If i didn’t crash before I got there no problem with eye sight Could have sworn that was flooring.
With a magnet you can be sure. Alu and titanium isn't attracted, steel is, stainless 304 very weak, stainless 320 not at all.
I rather doubt it's aluminium, seeing the thickness and sharp bending, aluminium alloy isn't that ductile and quite weak as a thin plate, especially with holes drilled on the corners and mounted there.
I once got an aluminium spacer mounted on the rear axle of a fixed gear, one the dealer recycled from a gear cassette or so, with 3 holes drilled on its circumference. When I left the shop and pushed the pedal, it broke immediately. Just to illustrate. Handlebars do undergo some force, and it's also under leverage.
