Product Description

  • 31.8 OS handlebar clamp diameter
  • 1 1/8" steer tube diameter
  • Forged and machined 6061 aluminum
  • anodized in red or black colors
  • 8 degrees of rise
  • 50mm reach
  • laser etched graphics
  • 563 grams (including all hardware)
  • The stem comes with all of the bolts, but if you do lose one, then you MUST replace with a DIN 10.9 M6x20mm CrMo Steel Chrome Plated. Do not substitute with shorter bolts, different steel, titanium or aluminum bolts. They are not strong enough for this application, and the 20mm long bolts are required to have enough threads engaged.

    This is the most impractical peice of equipment I've ever bought for my bike, but it's so cool looking. It's a freakin' skull for crying out loud!

    Strengths:    Looks crazy. Strong.

    Weaknesses:    Expensive, kinda heavy, only one size.

    Bottom Line:   
    It's a freakin' skull! How cool is that?

    I managed to get it on sale, so I went for it. Threw it on my bike and it looks wicked. OK, so there are probably stronger or lighter stems out there, but how many of them are skulls?

    Since it is a freeride stem it is definitely clyde-worthy.
