Strengths: Light. Ti Stylely. Doesn't look like every other doods stem.Weaknesses: Single bolt. Slide through access. Pricey.Bottom Line: I have had this mounted on my look hsc-3 fork for almost 3 years. I am not sure what the other folks are talking about in terms of looks... Compared to all the black, Deda Newton clone stems out there, this is style. Nothing beats the sheen of Ti on any frame. Problems: Having a single bolt holding the stem to fork being all the separates me from certain doom is a little disconcerning. It has never failed me and I try not to think about it. The other issue is having to completely redo handlebar tape everytime I need to remove handlebars (not very frequently).

What is the appeal of this thing?

Strengths: light and strongWeaknesses: non-removable faceBottom Line: This is a great stem. My 5500 came with a 140 mm stem which was too long for me. When I was looking for a new stem, I knew I wanted another grammo - only shorter.

Strengths: Very light; good finish; should last forever.Weaknesses: I can flex the heck out of it on a stationary trainer, but don't notice it on the road or rollers. Expensive. Single bolt, so not easy to remove bars.Bottom Line: It's light and works well. Being Ti, it should last.
Favorite Ride: Climb to Kaiser
