Looking for a good deal on a short, low stack 31.8 stem

Similar to sparty’s recent thread but with a twist. Looking to spend $80 max, if possible, for a 32-35mm 31.8 stem with a low stack height. Ideally, I’m looking for a good deal on a Silver or Platinum Diety Copperhead, since I don’t know of many stems with 30mm stack height, but I’m open to other similarly low stack options that are in budget.

35mm stack. I have one, works as intended and looks great on the bike.
I changed frames and the bew one has +20mm of headtube, hence the need for a low stack stem.

CRC οften has them on sale, when I got it I paid around 50€.

Was looking for the same thing. Flash sales at Pros Closet brought an Enve (31.8 x 35) down to $85.

I think that sale is over but if memory serves they have run 2 or 3 in the last few months.

$87 delivered. I ran this stem on my Stumpy to sneak a couple extra spacers underneath the stem and liked it a lot.

Man oh man that is a beautiful piece of metal. Thank you!

I have extras of those I’m willing to sell but they’re in black or orange (I’ll keep the other). Not your color scheme I’m afraid. PM if you’re interested. I’ll sell one to you for $75 shipped.
Thanks stripes! I got impatient and ended up pulling the trigger on a silver one before I saw this 🤦🏼‍♂️

No worries. They're good stems. I have a small collection of 35 (Deity), 40 (Chromag), 43 (Spank), 48 (Spank), 50 (Whiskey), and 60mm (Whiskey). Now because I'm in the process of figuring out mullet configurations for two bikes, I have two 35mm stems sitting around and the 40 and 43 at this point being used :)

I figured that I would need a 50mm stem for this bike since my Whisky bars have so much backsweep, but boy howdy I forgot about the reach growing through the travel on hardtails 😅
