No.7 Stem

The bike stem connects the handlebars to the bike's fork, playing a crucial role in steering and handling. The design and length of the stem can significantly impact your riding position and comfort. A well-chosen stem can enhance your control over the bike, making your rides more enjoyable and efficient.

The clamp diameter is the size of the part of the stem that grips the handlebars. A clamp diameter of 31.8mm is common for modern handlebars. It's essential to match the stem's clamp diameter with your handlebars to ensure a secure fit, which is vital for safety and performance while riding.

The rise of a stem indicates how much the handlebars can be tilted up or down. A rise of +/- 6 degrees allows for adjustments that can improve your comfort and riding posture. If you prefer a more upright position or a more aggressive riding stance, adjusting the rise can help you achieve that.

Stack height refers to the vertical space the stem occupies when installed on the bike. A stack height of 37mm means the stem will raise the bike's front end by that amount. This measurement is crucial for fitting the bike to your preferred riding position, ensuring you maintain comfort and control during your rides.

A 4-bolt bar attachment secures the handlebars to the stem using four bolts, providing a strong and stable connection. This design enhances safety and performance, as it minimizes the risk of the handlebars slipping or moving during rides, allowing you to focus on your cycling experience without worry.

To ensure compatibility, check the clamp diameter of your handlebars and the stack height of the stem. Additionally, consider the rise angle to match your preferred riding position. If you're unsure, consult with a bike specialist or refer to your bike's specifications to find the right stem for your setup.
