Force 119 ROAD
Light and stiff in 31.8 mm
The new Syntace stem system applied to the 31.8 mm handlebar clamping dimension.
If 31.8 mm ...
is being used for the handlebar clamping diameter then the rest of the stem
should be made as stiff and strong. A thicker stem tube is used, this 31.8mm
diameter is kept throughout the stem to the clamp area. We then leave the
steerer tube clamp diameter 31.8 and use a alu bushing to bring it down to
28.6.
Additional benefit: Without reduction shim the Force 119 fit's on every 1
1/4" fork.
Unmatched combination
of new, high-strength and forgeable aluminium alloy and real 3D forging. The
result: The lightest stem, which is simultaneously bombproof and as stiff
as other stems that weight 160g.
Friendly to carbon steerer tubes
Due to the fact that we use a bushing between the stem and the steerer tube
we are able to produce a better clamp area for carbon steerer tubes. Since
the bushing is fully en-closed and can apply constant pressure the clamp is
more secure.
VR-3 approved
according to VR-3 road standard RC 2002.2, the world‘s toughest test standard
for handlebars and stems.
