If you look for a stiff stem, that in it's right words doesn't flex, bend this is it.
Be it that you are a normal cyclist or a strong sprinter, this will serve you good anyway.

Why 4 stars and not you might wonder?
Well, it's because of what i write below.

It uses 4 bolts, two are allen heads and those 2 that lock the handlebar are torx T20. I don't get why it isn't 4 torx bolts!
For the visual appearance, it looks really good.
One thing, since the handlebar is locked with M4, don't force 5Nm on a carbon bar, when the bolts start to sit tight, it's enough. M4 threads are also more fragile so be a bit cautious not to go to hard on these. Make no mistake, the stem will hold your bar even with lower than 5Nm.
I have the 130mm version and a Black Inc Road bar, a great combo.

The stem is great if you take care and doesn't get upset about two different bolt head standards.
