This stem is designed specifically for bicycles with a 1-inch threaded steerer tube. If your bike uses a standard quill-style headset, this will fit, but you should verify your steerer diameter before purchasing to ensure compatibility.

Yes, that is the primary purpose of this stem. It allows you to run modern, oversized 31.8mm handlebars on a classic threaded fork setup, giving you access to a wider range of modern bar shapes and materials.
