Opinions: best looking stem
 

Assuming price is no object, what is best looking 90mm stem (1 1/8)? Flat black in color, neutral to slight rise....any material. Going on titanium Merlin...just curious what’s on everyone’s radar. Bored and thinking of few projects!

Most look the same to me really, unless you're going with one of those torpedo aero ones.

I did come across this the other day. Haven't used it myself.

Not flat and not unique in the looks department but super impressed with extralite.

The PRO Vibe carbon and alloy versions are really nice looking.

The new Enve Aero stem isn't bad.

My guys at BEAST make a very nice carbon stem. And since they can do gelcoats on them, even better!

The Thomson X2 is still a really nice looking stem.

FSA and Vision both have some nice carbon ones as well.

Price is no object? Tomii or Winter.

Best looking black stem would be the extralite hyperstem with black logos.
But on a titanium bike i think the best look is a titanium stem and then a moots comes to mind. They are easy to refinish so they appear in the same ti-finish as your merlin.

Pretty plain looking, but light and cheap.

+1. Lighter than stems costing 4x as much. Sleek looks. Hard to beat!

Option B: match your seatpost

Thanks, keep options coming! I like the black/black Enve and the Ritchey leads provided.

Seconded. Extralite Hyperstem.

The old Pro Vibe 7S stem is a bit different .
