Nice stem drawing, cool that its actually by Chad, its only sheet three of eight, so there are more design drawings somewhere.

he might have some more drawings somewhere, he said hes gonna have a look for me. all of the stuff was around the same time,late 92-early 93.
the stem blueprint (dated 1-5-93) says 3 of 8 but its the one that was used for production.
here is a pic of chads bike with the proto superfork stem. also the same bike the grind disk was on.
the corners are sharp edged and a few other detail differences

this is something im also trying to get more info on, the titanium hoffman condor he designed. would be cool to see some blueprints of it  :)
