Price Paid:  $40.00 at Performance

Favorite Ride:
Rock Creek Park Weekend Training/Insanity rides

Bike Setup:
Litespeed Ultimate, Dura Ace, LOOK HSC 2 fork, Cane Creek Aerohead Road Wheels

Summary:
The stem is great for the price. It does the job and looks nice. It has a smaller width clamp for the steer tube which allows it to be positioned at different heights on the steer tube. I had to add over 12 mm of spacers when I went from the ITM BigOne (which I bent in a crash, if you can believe that!). I can now raise and lower the bar height for different races, e.g. lower for crits and higher, more relaxed for longer road races.

Strengths:
Nice finish, stiff, small bite on the steer tube allows for more adjustment height wise.

Weaknesses:
None

SPECIALIZED ALLEZ M2 PRO

Summary:
SOMEONE WROTE THAT IT IS MANUFACTORED BY KALLOY-UNO. IF THAT IS TRUE, I ALLWAYS LIKE THE BANG FOR THE BUCK YOU GET WITH KALLOY PRODUCTS. THEIR SEATS POST IS ALSO AN EXCELLENT VALUE.

Strengths:
LIGHT&WELL BUILT,STURDY OVAL DESIGN WITH EXCELLENT WELD AT JOINT. GIVES LITTLE IF ANY FLEX. THE TWO BOLT CLAMP AND FACE PLATE GIVES A SECURE PLATFORM FOR QUICK AND EASY MOUNTING. A GOOD VALUE OVER ALL.

Weaknesses:
NONE

PURCHASED A PROFILE H20 AT THE SAME TIME AND RETURNED IT UNUSED.
