This was for showing the max case when climbing. The stem here is raised about 180mm on a fairly short 437mm chainstay and fairly slack 75.6 degree seattube angle. Even with this setup that on paper would seem impossible to climb without the front lifting all the time, it still wasn’t a problem, and I can make all the same climbs I could with a traditional stem even clearing some that I hadn’t cleared with a traditional stem like in climbs 5 and 7. If you are worried that this would be too tall even still with how I could clean all of these without problem or front wheel lifts, you can certainly run it lower than this with the lower Gen 2 90mm that’s more trail oriented which can also be run in +15mm for an even more trail and climb oriented ride dynamic. Don’t knock it till you try it. The skepticism you have is the same that everyone else has had before trying it, but the number one thing people say after actually trying it on a bike setup well for them to use it is that it’s not as weird as it looks and rides way better than they expected.
Long distance rides are where a lot of my customers really love the comfort from the more upright position. You get much less strain on your lower back, neck, shoulders, arms, and hands all with a more open chest for easy breathing. That decreased strain translates to decreased fatigue so you can ride longer more comfortably.
Though it’s not typically necessary, and all my happy customers found benefits using it on the same bike they already had over a traditional stem, you can run it on a much larger bike too. Doing so will give a bike that is much more stable than traditionally, but still very maneuverable and easy to carve tight due to the increased leverage from the RR stems Raised height and closer bar position, and the Reversed offsets steering dynamics.
In the Loam Wolf review his only issue really was hitting his knee when doing tight turns climbing switchbacks and the looks, and he blew that up into a deal breaking issue. He was faster descending than ever before first ride on it, had no issues climbing, and felt great cornering, but couldn’t figure out how to avoid the knee issue. Instead of reaching out to me about how I get over that issue despite telling him to reach out directly multiple times about if he had any issues so I could help direct him how to fix them like I do with my customers who all get my personal number in the instructions with the stem, he assumed it was an insurmountable issue and then posted the review. The solution is just to move your knee out of the way… You can actually hit your knee on the bar when doing a tight switchback climb on a traditional stem too, but you have the muscle memory from all your years riding a bike of that your knee and your hands are in this position, and you know how to avoid them intersecting. Now your hands are in a different position, so you need to learn the new position.
This was my video response explaining how to get around that issue with a description of how to do it.
I didn’t get a response from them though or a retest to see if their one deal breaking issue went away when doing the proper technique to avoid it…
Certainly going down a similar albeit less extreme route.
