Strengths: great stem, realy solid and dosent flex as well as being a lot lighter weight than you'd expectWeaknesses: noneBottom Line: i'd recomend this to anyone, it dosent have alot of marketing hype or fancy finish e.g. Race Face Diablo etc, so it get to you at a much better price while performing equaly or better than stems over twice the price.

from Melbourne, AustraliaDate Reviewed: April 1, 2003
Strengths: Nice looks, powerfull grip, no flex, great angel and lenth, and great colours and very cheapWeaknesses: Bolts can strip, so tighten eavenlyBottom Line: Money for value it is the best stem on the market. I belive it's better than the Azonic because the Azonic can ovalize your steerer tube and they have been known to crack. Bottonline: buy this stem if you want a cheap reliable stem that kicks ass

Strengths: Half the price of the azonic shorty for the same level of performance!Weaknesses: Err... you need a 6mm key for the over sized plate bolts... wait, that's a good thing!Bottom Line: This is a great little investment. I can't see how I could bust it and it puts the reach and rise on my slightly-too big-for-me bike in just the right spot. As I said, half the price for the same performance.

Strengths: CNC machined
4 bolt front cup
PriceWeaknesses: NoneBottom Line: It looks like other priced famous brand stem but it cost less. What do you have to ask to a good stem? Strengh and durability. This is CNC machined, has a front cup with 4 oversized bolts. Don't spend more than 100 bucks just for the brand. Go buying this one.
