Kim, thanks for the tip about the helicopter tape, I hadn't thought about that. Should probably do what I can to protect this thing.
Michael, the stem is a Soma Sutro. It's 180mm, so in-between standard and Technomic. I think they look good, the height is right for this sort of bike (for me anyway), and they're relatively cheap at around $50.
