Strengths: hasn't broken, easton qualitym, cheapWeaknesses: could use a little more rise, wish it was a 4 bolt stem. knowing it's bottom of the barrel as far as easton goesBottom Line: ***first off, just wanted to point out that the EA30 pictured isn't the EA30 stem that was recalled. the 4 bolt ea30 stem was recalled which went into production after this one.***
This came stock on my '06 RM ETSX-10. It does the trick, but i'm upgrading for something beefier. The two bolt system worries me sometimes, but i haven't had any issues with the hard riding i do.
Duration Product Used: 1 Year
Purchased At: came with my rig
Bike Setup: '06 Rocky Mountain ETSX-10. mostly stock except some misc upgraded components and 3rd chain ring delete w/ fsa bash guard
