I really wanted to do this for the longest time, but I needed a pic of my modded stem. At 206g stock though..and can be modded without sacrificing much strength is awesome. I rode it with a alu bar on a rigid (LOL@haters) and now I ride it with a shim and shaved as much material as I can. Never has it gave me an issue.

 the atlas respond stem should be on here too. Like $50 for a 160g stem

Close but no cigar.

 i definitely meant this one

 170g and "designed specifically for the all mountain rider"? Why don't we just cut to the chase and throw up the Ritchey WCS Matrix?

 sunline am stem, 145 on my scale. solid stem for DJing.

 i ran it and rode mostly street and some dirt... every day for a year... never slipped

 Well...Groves I believe who said it, but greasing the threads help. I think he made a little white lie though.

 Only TIME will tell

 Nope. Steel.

 Okay if they were I was going to say add that to the 60 dollars

 Well...luckily for me, I got that stem a lot cheaper, and it's funny when you see the price to weight ratio on these...I mean, I'd spend the money on the Holzfeller hands down. I have owned/own all three stems and I never had a problem with two of them. I choose TruVativ here.

 Lol at straightline slippage

 Hack saw...wheel grinder, and files.

 Do you think a dremmel would work?

 I used that at first, but had two bits broke before I whipped out the saw.
