With this 7075 alloy set-up, it’s the stem not the bar that provides a lot of the comfort as it moves vertically while still resisting twist. As a result, it’s well placed for riders who want comfort for long rides more than a stiff set-up for sprinting. The stem twists a little too much for some of our bigger testers’ liking, but the long ride, high milers among us got along very well with it.
