ODI was also showing off a number of new stems that will hit production soon. Included in the new stem lineup are direct mount, short all-mountain, and even longer XC specific stems. We'll have pictures and specs soon, but from what I saw they look dialed!
Visit odigrips.com for more info.
also you can adjust them to track, wide bars for fort bill narrow bars for llangollen ^^
think about how easy threads get monkied up...very easily...now when youre riing with the plugs off, and i mean minus the 1.5" extension plugs, and you fall and the bars smuck the ground, now you have a stupid expensive bar with a destroyed thread on one end of the bar. you may be able to tap it if you have the right thread pitch tap but if not youde be out of luck and have a bar thats longer on one side than the other.
KISS...KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID!
JD Swanguen used hollow ti stem bolts @ correct torque setting.
Why not have the option to do away with the extension tube and end lock on and build it into the end part of the lock on grip?
More simple solution to a problem. Does away with 2 parts and would look tidier
Do away with the screw lock mechanism from the inner lock on and make it a threaded end with a compression or swaged fitting or o-ring for grip as the extension end will provide the main hold for the grip (thinking ruffians here) and the compression/swaged end providing an anti rotation of the grip mechanism.
Just a couple of thoughts.
-you like 28" bars at a low rise. ok buy them
-you like a 30" bar with 2 inch rise. ok go buy them
-you like the idea of complicating the bike anymore then they already should be. well its your own dam fault
You'll adjust them once and stick with it.
People don't roll around going "Damn, I wish I had some 25"s for like the next 5 minutes."
