Purchased At:

Strengths:
Light,beautifully made and great looking lightweight stem.Many colours available.
Weaknesses:
To be honest none at all.
Similar Products Used:
various stems used.
Bike Setup:
Fat Chance hardtail.
Bottom Line:
A very well made,great looking lightweight stem that doesn`t flex,creak or loosen.I`m quite hard on my bike/kit and was worried that it might not be up to much abuse but its proved to be an excellent piece of kit. To be honest I only bought one because they were different and trick looking and i`m a sucker for shiny spangly things but I`m glad I did because it`s been one of my better buys in recent years.Believe you me i`ve bought some crap masquerading as good gear.
