Review on 🚲 Optimized for SEO: Shotpeen Anodized Spank Split 35 Enduro Trail Bicycle Stem by Owen Houser

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect stem in bars, headsets and stems

Over 30 years of cycling and plenty of stems in my toolbox. The new geometry on trail and enduro bikes makes the cockpit setup even more dramatic: steeper seat tubes bring you closer to the handlebars, and sagging head tubes react differently to 2mm changes in length and height. The Split series stem offers the usual solution for mounting a stem to a stem, but it has a low stack height that allows it to be slammed down or lifted without much concern, like a short stem, it has a simple clamping mechanism with more (5 mm ?) hardware for a lower probability of clearing, and the cost is about 30% lower than comparable competitors, if not twice as high. Beautiful to look at and very functional. I dig it up
