from Poughkeepsie, NYDate Reviewed: June 7, 2008
Strengths: Its made out of 7050, my last stem was 6061 so I can definatly feel the stiffness of this stem. You can change the rise angles of this stem! Mine came with a +8/+16 or -8/-16 shim. I tried it with +8 degrees for a 4 hour ride and it felt much better than my older stem which had a +6 rise. Then I reversed the shim to +16 degrees and its so comfy feels much better although I know my climbing will suffer. Its just nice to know I can switch it depending on how I might be riding. Plus I can get different shims if +16 is to much and +8 to little.Weaknesses: None so far.Bottom Line: Its like 2 stems in one, 2 good ones.
Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month
Price Paid:
$60.00
Purchased At: Bicycle Depot- New P
Bike Setup: I wanted a stem with more rise in the first place becuase I have a 34" inseam but Im only 5'10 with a short torso. I have my Thompson 410mm seatpost and its like a foot out of my 19" bike. The result was my angle forward was too steep. This higher stem evens things out and my comfort level has increased alot.
