NS Magneto stem

NS Magneto stem

"If it ain't broke, don't fix it" isn't a phrase that sits well with NS Bikes, it would seem, because with the Magneto they've attempted to reinvent the stem.

This two-piece design features a neat looking integrated top cap that means you have to cut your fork's steerer tube to exactly the right length to ft it. It also uses a wedge system to clamp the steerer tube, doing away with external bolts that can be nasty on your knees. Made from cold-forged 6061-T6 alloy and designed for freeride and enduro use, it's available in a single 47mm length with a 0-degree rise. Our sample weighs 205g.

PRICE 105$

Cannondale Trail SL 29 SS

The fat aluminium tubes are a constrast to the skinny items seen elsewhere in the test, but this rigid Cannondale uses them to create one of the most old-school - and lightest - rides here.

CANYON NERVE AL 8.0
