Price Paid:
$69.00
Purchased At:
internet
Strengths:
Lightweight at 133 gms for 110 mm size, yet stiff enough for XC use. The shiny finish matches my fork crown and Pluto bar.
Weaknesses:
The glossy clearcoat chips easily. At speeds above 17 mph or so the thing whistles like blowing across the top of an open beer bottle. Sure enough, there are gaps between the body and the bar that are tuned just right to tell me I'm in the zone.
Similar Products Used:
Thomson X4, and lots of other attempts at making something as good.
Bike Setup:
Voodoo Sobo hardtail with '08 Sid and XT drivetrain.
Bottom Line:
For the price I paid its a good deal. If you want the best stem though look at the other brand that starts with T.
