This product was recommended by Will Henry from Bike Smarts

The RaceFace Ride Mountain Bike Stem is excellent for any rider, whether you’re just breaking into mountain biking or have been knocking around the woods since your early teens. It features lightweight aluminum construction, so it cuts back on fatigue, along with integrated twin bolts that allow riders to fine-tune their steering tightness with a simple allen wrench. The RaceFace Ride Mountain Bike Stem also has an 8 reach, which means it can handle taller bars like those typically found on downhill mountain bikes. That makes it perfect for riders looking for uncompromising performance and quality.
