Has anyone used the 3T Arx Team Alloy Stem?

    Have that exact one, not really much you can say about stems, its stiff, nicely made and looks the biz. The same stem you see on a lot of the Pro Peleton bikes, and its reasonably priced.

    Very good stem, pretty lightweight compared to other stems I have used. I got it on Slane cycles quite cheap.

    Personally I wouldn't bother with a carbon stem, a lot of them (like the FSA OS-99 CSI being just an OS-99 with a carbon wrap) are aluminium wrapped in carbon. This makes them heavier (118g versus 103g for those two) despite the price difference.

    Even the Zipp full carbon stem weighs more than a decent aluminium stem. If you are worried about vibrations, buy a decent pair of gloves.

    Of course, they look pretty good.

    Belated thanks for the feedback guys. I was away so couldn't check responses. Will go with that stem so. Cheers.
