D2R2: A Dirt Road Delight

Mountain Bike Stem Image

I saw everything from an old Raleigh Gran Sport to a recumbent, which was doing surprisingly well on the climbs. I was riding smooth-tread 30C tires, which worked very well in the dry conditions.

Mountain Bike Stem Image

This super stiff and light classic horizontal road stem is machined from 7075 alloy with a chamfered square cross section to give a really stiff ride for roadies who like the extra torsional rigidity. The KCNC Arrow road stem in black or white is one such item. The 17-degree drop gives a flat top bar and stem option. Mountain bike specific versions are set to appear in the Clee Cycles catalogue in just a few months time. Available in ratios 11-23, 12-25 and 12-27 the unit carries ten individual cogs mounted to a one-piece anodised 7075 alloy carrier. t really practical for road racing thanks to a lack of pockets and, more importantly, it&rsquo.
