Description
You really can have it all - the WCS C220 stem rivals the performance of the revolutionary C260 stem design, but is more rapide and easier to install and remove thanks to a snap-on handlebar clamp interface and forward-facing hardware.
The WCS C22 84D stem offers 6° of positive or negative elevation. First proven on the Ritchey Trail stem, the C220 handlebar clamp design creates a more secure interface by wrapping 220° around the handlebar. Clamping forces are aligned with the clamp so that the stem body "hugs" the handlebar, which is less likely to damage lightweight handlebars. This clamp design allows for a lighter faceplate and stem body without sacrificing strength or rigidity.
The stem body is forged from 2014 aluminum for additional weight reduction. Premium black stainless steel bolts are used throughout.
