Mig muses on 2 wheels

Is there a “bike parts that don’t exist but you wish they did” thread?

If no I guess I can dither:

A Phil wood hub axle end that has a shoulder that fits in a 142 TA dropout and corresponding exterior hex bolts (like above)

Is there a rule for drop bar vs alt bar stem length?

Like, if my drop bars are on 100mm stem, what should my alt bar stem be sized?

Longer, right?

How does the reach change?
What if the riding position changes from (drop bar) to (upright)?

no

You like what you like. I like longer stems on swept bars personally.
