By far my most favorite stem, ever! No frills, just function and quality
I always like adjustable stems. Mainly because I often move stems between bikes or find myself wanting to rise my position on a long ride. I'm not a weight weenie so the added weight doesn't bother me.
I used more expensive stems before I discovered this one and I would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone.
First: two marks of a quality stem:
- two bolts on the steering tube mount
- four bolts on the handlebar mount
The adjustment pivot is easy to um... adjust and appears to be strong enough for most use. The stem as a whole appears to be well made and comes with high quality bolts.
The stem is sleek looking too, some adjustable stems add some bulkiness to the looks.
This is a great value stem, yo get a lot of features and quality for the price. It's not flashy and few grams heavier than brand name stems.
Pros: Dual bolt steerer tube mount.
Four bolt handlebar mount.
Strong construction.
Strong pivot point.
Easily adjustable.
Sleek looks.
Cons: None.

Yes No Report as InappropriateThis is a good stem. I had bought another brand before this and had all kind of issues with the other stem being hard to adjust, heavy, poor workmanship on the build quality. The dimension stem had none of these problems. It is easy to adjust, is more secure feeling when locked down, its not as heavy as some of the competition, looks good and works well. Recommended
Pros: easy to adjust and solid
Cons: none
