fizik stem anyone?

[vqdriver]

they've been out for a bit now, but i don't see a lot of threads gushing about them like when fizik released the cyrano seatpost. has anyone tried one yet? feedback?

i recall when the posts came out, people really want to like them but there were some creaking issues.

A stem isn't really the sort of component that seems to garner a whole lot of gushing. I'm sure the Fizik ones work fine, just like 90% of the other stems on the market. Once you've decided on a length, clamp size and angle, most stem choice is just aesthetics and making sure it doesn't totally suck.

Seems like the only time stems get noticed is when they fail. Otherwise you just forget about them.

But - availability of sizes and finish can get them noticed, like when they come in both silver and black, 0 degrees and 84 degrees, and if they come in both 26 and 31.8 bar sizes.

I have one, but waiting on a new project to install it.

yes, i suppose the only time you'd notice a stem is if there's something wrong with it. so i'll take the no news as good news.

i have a mixed cockpit now, and am daydreaming about an upcoming build so just entertaining options.

I have one on the new bike, nothing of note beyond torx head bolts.
