The C260 was actually my first ever carbon unit. I really like the wrap-around and the bolts that screw in from the other side - even though installing it is a bit of a pain, and not many OTF mounts available. The first thing I noticed is how much stiffer it was over some old ITM LUXE or such. The 3 steerer bolts are cool too.
Overall I don't thing the stem is actually that stressed if you're doing the Hinault piano playing thing. If OP really wants something hardcore MTB is the
go.
