Most recent pic of my Phoenix :) Most recent pic, but not most recent configuration. The Race Face EX 4130 stem has been replaced by the Ti edition of that same stem.

Thank you. I tend to agree. This is the EX fitted now. I haven't tried it yet. If it turns out to be too noodlely, I go back to 4130.

hopefully it will be ok, i remember seeing the amount of flex in a titanium stem before, i was shocked! but then it was a ti velocity stem on a hei hei with matching ti p2 forks and a titanium bar so maybe it all added up on that bike to make it seem worse.
 
Coincidentally I was admiring this on Google images just a wek or two ago. Beautiful :cool:
 
wow, that's SWEET! :cool:

i have the same stem in my Merlin Ti, with a Bonty/Titec bar. there's flex but it's not so much that i feel the need to change it, but that could be just me.

but i do like the black EX stem on that as it goes with the frame.
 
You're right the black stem is nice too ...plus it has a bit of rise. Will see whether the current configuration works out okay. Really want to give the Ti stem a purpose. Could end up in starting a new project :shock:
