Azonic Riot Stem


FOLLOWING THE TREND for shorter stems to accompany the longer front ends of today’s more aggressive trail and all-mountain bikes, Azonic have delivered a great-looking 40mm number that looks set to hit the right notes.

The stubby Riot Stem is manufactured from a solid billet of 6061-T6 aluminium and has a low 38mm stack height and zero-degree rise, so you can run your bar low or use spacers to achieve your preferred ride height.

With a claimed weight of 195g and available in four colours, there’s now another suitably short stem on the market for discerning riders.

PRICE: 84$

SO GOOD Gusset’s 50mm stem is nicely CNC machined from 7075 alloy and the faceplate and internal steerer clamp are available in a range of five anodised colours to complement the black body. The hidden steerer clamp keeps sharp edges to a minimum and removes stress from the body of the stem. Out on the bike, the stem proved flex free and bombproof.
