Description: The Thomson stem is machined from 7000 series aluminum. The stem is one-piece design with no welds or joints.
The wide clamp length (48mm) and the patent pending undercut around the handlebar combine to grip the handlebar more securely. Thomson's "two clamps in one" design provides a stiff ride with minimal flexing or squeaking.
The steerer tube clamps pamper your steerer tube. The clamps have a large surface area and go around the steerer tube more than 180°. The two bolts provide an extra level of security.
The center tubular section of the Thomson stem is tapered with a constant wall thickness resulting in a high stiffness to weight ratio. The torsional rigidity of the Thomson stem is over 155 foot pounds per degree, the highest of any stem we have tested.
The bolts are custom-made from high strength steel. A corrosion-preventative plating is added to prevent rust. All six bolts are interchangeable. A 4mm hex wrench will fit all bolts on our stems and seatposts.
The stem is annodized to prevent corrosion, and maintain a nice appearance. Thomson stems are available with either a black or clear anodize finish.
Lightweight - 110mm stem weights approximately 199 grams.
