We are pleased to announce the latest addition to the cSixx Products range:
a Stem that is not only of extended length but also offers more degree variations and multiple colour options.
Starting from 60mm length sizes and 0º, 7º or 17º degrees
See the Stem and more on our Instagram page here.
Basic feature points of a Stem:
A stem forms an integral part of your bicycle’s steering functionality. In plain words; The handlebar connects to the head tube which runs through your frames head tube and is connected to you fork which holds the front wheel.
Stems play a great deal in how your bike handles and how you control your bike. A shorter stem makes the steering more direct and a longer stem makes it more stable in a straight line but slower in quick handling. Length in stems greatly influences the fit of your bike. With different degree angles, you can either lift or drop the “front-end” of your bike making it more aero or comfortable and increasing handling abilities.
Modern mountain bikes feature longer top tubes and come with shorter stems in order to offer more precision handling whilst road and gravel bikes feature longer stems in order to stabilise straight line speed.
In Summary
The stem is a critical component of a bicycle, ensuring the rider can steer the bike while also influencing the bike's handling and the rider's position and comfort.
Our Story
Following the success of our Trail Stem, we have acknowledged the demand for a stem tailored to Cross Country Mountain biking and gravel-oriented cycling, suitable for road bicycles.
The stems will be available in three batches of pre-orders; 60-80mm, then 90-110mm and then the 35mm bar clamp versions.
We are conducting additional tests to ensure they adhere to the most recent industry standards and we need more time to test the 90mm+ lengths.
