Description:Deus XC stem has been dramatically re-designed to minimize weight. We’ve kept the same performance enhancing features that have made our stems some of the industry’s best. However, we’ve trimmed the excess weight, making this stem ideal for high level cross country riders and racers.

$90.00 | | Purchased At: | ChainReactionCycles.com | | Strengths: | Light,looks bling when new | | Weaknesses: | Silver chrome finish started to peel off after a month or so. Was completly gone after a year and peeled off leaving sharp edges.
Cracks developed at the headset side on top and below and spread towards the handlebar. | | Similar Products Used: | Easton EA50 | | Bike Setup: | Santa Cruz blur with fox suspension, and SRAM and raceface drivetrain | | Bottom Line: | For the finish on a high end stem to peel off after a couple of months and then to crack after a year after jumping off nothing higher than a foot is completely unacceptable...don't mess around, if you wanna spend this much get a thomson! | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

Date Reviewed: July 20, 2006 | | Favoriate Trail: | To be found, Wales is great. | | Duration Product Used: | Less than 1 month | | Price Paid: |
$62.00 | | Purchased At: | PsycleWorX Bristol | | Strengths: | This is for the late Deus 2 xc at the time of writing.
Super lightweight and strong, nice logo and great finish.
Available in good lengths (errr). | | Weaknesses: | Restricted to 6 degrees.
Heard that the Silver version can peel off if you need to file up for oversize tubes.
Xc does not need oversize, maybe dh or fr. | | Similar Products Used: | Raceface Deus 1, Syncros, Tioga. | | Bike Setup: | Refitted Gt Zaskar Race easton 2001 edt, 717 wheels Dt rev spokes, xt hubs and brakes, Lx shifters, arzonic double-wall risers, Xtr rm, Lx fm, Syncros 6061 seatpost, specialized Jett saddle-ladies I know...Hope hose supporters and stem spacers. RC31 forks. Conti tyres.
Awaiting reba 07 or manitou R7, | | Bottom Line: | Great piece kit, nice finish, trick light weight, bit pricy but equivlent Thompson costs the same and weighs a ton.
Stay away from peeling silver version.
