On its own, the Deity Components Cavity Stem resembles a large, metal, anodized tooth, which hints at its strength to confidently connect your steerer tube and handlebars. Precisely machined out of 6061 T6 aluminum, the stem features a wide stance and a beefy 55mm faceplate that distributes force and increases stiffness when paired with wide handlebars. Rounded edges throughout the body offer clean contours that won't dig into your shins when things go sideways. Additional machining on the sides reduce weight where it isn't needed without sacrificing strength and stiffness so you can drop in with confidence that this stem will hold its own through the rough.
