This is a very nice stem that doesn't weigh a lot and is rock solid for anyone interested in abusing their bike. I use this stem on my freeride urban assault bike. I was also interested in getting a very short stem with a slight rise and this was one of the only options. I'm not disappointed. I could do without the cheesy skull engravings, though.
