Truvativ XR stem | $19.87
BikeRadar verdict
"Simple, reliable sturdy stem for bugger all money."
Some kit just puts the pricing of others into perspective and the XR is a prime example.
We've used several examples of this simple 3D forging with its single rear bolt and chunky 4 bolt front 'overbite' clamp and never had a problem with excessive flex or creaking.
The single M6 rear bolt can put a proper ding in your kneecap if you whack it, but they've even machine clean the forged XR logo on the front. It comes in loads of sizes too.
