ENVE Composites presents this Alloy Mountain Stem in a sleek black finish. Measuring 42mm in length and 35mm in bar clamp diameter, with a 0-degree stem angle, it's a great choice for various mountain biking adventures. It offers an affordable alternative to the ENVE M6 and M7 Carbon Stems, giving riders confidence on the trails. This stem is 3D-forged and precision machined from lightweight aluminum, suitable for cross country, trail, all-mountain, enduro, and gravity applications. It features a no-gap face plate installation for even clamping and secure handlebar retention, with beveled edges to protect carbon handlebars. The blind bolt holes provide a clean look by minimizing sharp edges and exposed threads. And the stainless hardware ensures long-lasting, corrosion-free performance.
Using this mountain bike stem is easy. First, make sure to choose the right size and angle that suits your bike and riding style. When installing, use the no-gap face plate installation method for a secure fit. Tighten the bolts carefully to ensure even clamping. Remember, the beveled edges are there to protect your carbon handlebars, so don't over - tighten. For maintenance, regularly check the hardware for any signs of wear or looseness. Since it has stainless hardware, it's resistant to corrosion, but it's still a good idea to clean it after rides in muddy or wet conditions. Use a mild cleaner and a soft cloth to keep it looking good and performing well. Also, if you notice any damage or excessive wear, it's time to replace the stem to keep your bike safe.
