Ive seen after market ones abroad on ebay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nos-OS-BMX-Bolt-Chrome-Stem-for-Pro-Neck-Tuf-Neck-/160619335758?pt=Cycling_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2565a8904e

It's a painted stem & I thought it would work well with the build but was hoping to source some here so that i could get it done a little more quickly.

Not sure about chrome but it's Andy Rooski that can get the bolts.

He was stood talking to me when you bundled over to me on Sunday Lee - you should have asked me then and you could have met him...... :2funny:

Yep, 25.4mm x 1/4 = 6.35mm so there's your answer. All oldschool Yankee stems were imperial.
