Date Reviewed: January 28, 2008 | | Favoriate Trail: | Alum Creek P2 | | Duration Product Used: | 1 Year | | Price Paid: |
$45.00 | | Purchased At: | Jenson.com | | Strengths: | Overly Burly and Built. Awesome looking. Strong as hell. | | Weaknesses: | Stock face bolts are TOOOOOO short, but can be fixed, see my bottom line below. | | Similar Products Used: | SIC stems, husselfelt stems. | | Bike Setup: | 2007 Mongoose Black Diamond Triple, Sherman Breakout Plus Fork, Fox DHX 5.0 Coil Shock, White Azonic Outlaw Wheels, WTB Timberwolf Tires, SRAM X9 Drivetrain, Hussefelt Crank, FUNN Grippa stem. | | Bottom Line: | I think this stem is better suited for freeriders and the All-Mountain use it's getting from me. There has been complaints about the face bolts stripping, they are TOO short stock, I don't know if FUNN has fixed this problem yet but I simply took the stock bolts to my local hardware store and got stainless steel replacements that were 1/4 longer than the junk stock ones it fixed the problem right now, cost about $1.00 to fix. So if your really set on getting one of these stems be prepaired to do the above and then get out there and ride!!! | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

Date Reviewed: October 27, 2006 | | Favoriate Trail: | Taniwha | | Duration Product Used: | 6 months | | Strengths: | Simple, burly, good looking, inexpensive. | | Weaknesses: | Heavy (341 grams). 6 bolt face plate can be a bit of a hassle to set up but no problems experienced. | | Similar Products Used: | Thomson, Azonic, Maarz direct mount. | | Bike Setup: | Specialized SX 4X, Talas 130, Mavic Xmax XL, Gamut Guide, X9, Holzfella Cranks, Saint Brakes. | | Bottom Line: | Not bad, but better options are avialable, including other stems from the Funn range. Very stiff, perhaps overkill my my mainly trail riding, but overall im happy with it. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

Date Reviewed: May 5, 2006 | | Favoriate Trail: | any | | Duration Product Used: | 6 months | | Purchased At: | My shop | | Strengths: | relatively lightweight for a block of machined aluminum, looks cool. | | Weaknesses: | 4mm 6 bolt pattern not strong enough for 31.8 bar. First one bolt stripped, then another, and finally it wouldn't hold the bar anymore. I made sure that all bolts were torqued to the proper spec, greased, tightened in the right sequence etc. | | Similar Products Used: | Sic ll, azonic, race face evolve, fsa freeride | | Bike Setup: | SC jackal, dj/street setup | | Bottom Line: | Not worth it, spend your money on a sic or something with proper sized bolts, ie 5 mm at least. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
