You can truly have it all: the WCS C220 silver stem rivals the performance of the revolutionary C260 stem, but it's faster and easier to install and remove, thanks to a pressure-fit handlebar clamp interface and forward-facing bolts.
First proven on Ritchey's Trail stem, the C220 handlebar clamp design creates a more secure interface by wrapping 220° around the handlebar. Clamping forces are aligned with the clamp so the stem body "embraces" the handlebar, making it less likely to damage lightweight handlebars. This clamp design allows for a lighter faceplate and stem body without sacrificing strength or stiffness.
The stem body is forged from 2014 aluminum for further weight reduction. Premium stainless steel bolts are used throughout.
