The Ritchey Comp Trail Stem represents our first stem specifically designed for today’s 5-6” travel trail bikes using wide bars. More than just a beefed-up version of our other stems, with the Trail stem we revised the clamp to fit a wider variety of riser bar bends – still packing a dramatic increase in stiffness and strength over competitors’ designs. The extra-wide bar clamp takes stiffness to the next level, fits most riser bars, and ensures plenty of confident control out on the trail.
