Fixed gear bikes/ Post your big bikes V2

Danno:
I had a professional fitting today and it's transformed the way my bike feels. Stem was too short, saddle was too high and my seat too far forward.

I've got to buy a new stem to replace my Thomson X2, does anyone have any recommendations? I might stick with Thomson but it's slipped a couple of times when I've hit fairly small potholes which isn't very confidence inspiring. Is it a no-go to put an X4 on a road bike?

Brooklynrider:
Most people I know went with an X4 on road bikes. The X2s often crack on the faceplate.

Kinchy:
Leave Thomson to seatposts, there are tons of other good stems out there, just pick one you like the look/weight of.

Ritchey, Deda, 3T, Zipp etc etc. Preferably should match your seatpost and/or handlebars but not always essential

Dr. Steve Brule:
Ridden my X2 for years with no problems, can't fault it. Thomson post too obvs.

reebzor:
My X2 slips all the time and I'm about to replace it with a Zipp SL Sprint I think. I need that stiffness.
