Seriously, he crashed 40 feets from me and i can't believe this guy came out of this with no injuries and that he managed to get down the hill with his bike on his shoulder... he has landed at least 20 feets over the race track hitting rocks and everything on his way. The surprise is not that the handlebars didn't make it, it's more : How in the world the rest of that bicycle stood there and how this lucky guy has managed to get out of there with no injuries...

directmount feels nicer, but I've always been partial to a traditional stem for that reason
