Nukeproof Zero stem


SO GOOD
This simple, well finished heavy-duty 50mm stem was designed with input from Team CRC-Nukeproof’s 4X racers and has proved more than capable of taking the big hits on an enduro bike too. Where possible, excess material has been shaved away, and the resulting 173g weight is a decent trade-off between gram saving and reassuring substance. The opposing bolts on the steerer clamp help keep tightening forces even.

NO GOOD
Those 4mm bolts again – grrr! The lack of torque settings left us tightening it to ‘about right’. The ‘team’ graphics will be Marmite to many too.

PRICE 69$
