If 31.8 mm ...
is being used for the handlebar clamping diameter then the rest of the stem should be made as stiff and strong. A thicker stem tube is used, this 31.8mm diameter is kept throughout the stem to the clamp area. We then leave the steerer tube clamp diameter 31.8 and use a alu bushing to bring it down to 28.6.
Additional benefit: Without reduction shim the Force 119 fit's on every
1 1/4" fork.
Unmatched combination
of new, high-strength and forgeable aluminium alloy and real 3D forging. The result: The lightest stem, which is simultaneously bombproof and as stiff as other stems that weight 160g.
Friendly to carbon steerer tubes
Due to the fact that we use a bushing between the stem and the steerer tube we are able to produce a better clamp area for carbon steerer tubes. Since the bushing is fully en-closed and can apply constant pressure the clamp is more secure.
Special 200° Head
makes the best “bed” for your handlebar, by reducing bar flex. You’ll get increased handlebar strength and fatigue life without any extra weight.
VR-3 approved
according to VR-3 downhill standard
DH 2002.4, the world‘s toughest test standard for handlebars and stems.

Tighten the clamp bolts to the maximum Nm torque setting detailed on the stem. If the maximum torque setting is exceeded the clamp can break!
