0 degree rise stems: who makes nice ones?

[Lewis Moon]

Who, besides Thomson, makes a nice 0 degree rise stem? The new ride needs a bit more rise.
I'm not a fan of the Eastons.

[buldogge]

Enve and Ritchey both make them.

Probably need to poke around some "MTB" stems…

I like Easton.

[eddief]

few and far between these days. i don't think Ritchey or Enve do that one. add one more spacer and use an 86. a lot of times it actually looks better.

May we assume you mean threadless?

[EricEstlund]

Just for clarity, are you asking about a 0*/90* stem, or one with no rise when mounted to the bike (-17*/73* ish)?

[coreywood]

If he's at the top of the steerer, a spacer won't fit......
Lewis, are you out of room on the steerer, is that the reason you need rise in the stem?

[buldogge]

Enve doesn't…could have sworn they did before.

Ritchey has the WCS Trail…gonna depend on how long Lewis needs it to be though.

…or…get over the Easton hate.

Also, Hope…but again, only 110mm max:

I mostly use 120mm so have never come across that one.

Thomson X4 looks good works good.

Yep, a 90 is correct.

Yeah. The new (to me) Felt F2 has an integrated HS so the 190 head tube ends up being a LOT shorter than the 195 on my steel Primero. With a -6 degree stem I'm at -10 cm drop from the saddle. I could use a smidge less.

That's my first choice now.
