I was reminded of one other benefit of threadless the other day when I
pulled the stem out of my quickbeam to grease it after not greasing it for
longer than I should have. While the stem was not stuck yet, I had to apply
a little extra force to get it out. The stem getting stuck is not an issue
with threadless. Don't get me wrong I love my rivs that and I realize there
are various kludges such as adaptors to get threadless stems to work on
bikes designed for quills but for what its worth I have a preference for
threadless and having had bikes with both have found no downside for me to
threadless. My opinion would probably be different if I liked to change bar
height mid ride etc.
