We are carbon experts, but that doesn't mean we don't know aluminum either. The success of our carbon parts depends on our ability to precisely machine the aluminum and steel molds in which our carbon wheels and components are made. In fact, we were machining aluminum and steel long before we ever pulled a carbon part from a mold. Accuracy, precision, and durability are key components to making an aluminum mold for carbon parts, and they happen to be the same ingredients needed to make a quality aluminum mountain bike stem.Our goal for the Alloy Mountain Stem was to create a product that features strength, light weight, ride quality and aesthetics that honors the art of aluminum machining while maintaining the performance benefits of our Carbon M-Series handlebars. To achieve this, each alloy stem is cold forged and then extensively machined.The result is an incredibly strong and reliable stem that has little weight loss over carbon, but is lighter than most premium alloy stems on the market. Given that stems and handlebars work as a team, the Alloy Mountain Stem's clamp width is designed to complement the M-Series carbon handlebars and their unique flex profiles. To further perfect the pairing, the surfaces of the stem's clamping area have been refined to prevent damage to our M-Series carbon handlebars. In addition, the Alloy Mountain Stem features blind holes to prevent sharp edges and battered knees. Finally, stainless steel hardware is used to provide long life without the risk of corrosion.The ENVE Alu Mountain Stem offers a more affordable alternative to the ENVE M6 & M7 Carbon Stems while giving the rider confidence.technical details:Material forged aluminummanufacturing process CNC-machinedlength 35 mm + 50mmclamping 35.0 mm

An incredibly stable carbon handlebar with 35 mm clamp diameter - perfect for downhill. Available with 10, 25 or 40 mm rise.Why do we do it?Gravity bikers need a wide, stiff platform that gives them control and high agility - but isn't so stiff that their hands and arms suffer on long, rough descents. This 35mm clamp diameter Mountain handlebar combines the DNA of our legendary downhill handlebar with the sleek aesthetics of our classic riser handlebars for the best riding experience in its class.The M7 Mountain handlebar is our 35mm option for the most aggressive and demanding bikers. Carbon is the ideal material for a Gravity handlebar because fiber orientation and shape are designed independently, but developed together. This allows you to create exactly the desired flex - this would not be possible with aluminium. Thus, this handlebar convinces with precision and agility, in addition, it absorbs tiring vibrations and takes the hardest hits their peaks. technical details:Material CarbonWeight 230gBar Width (Max) 800mmBar Width (Min) 780mmClamp Diameter 35mmSweep 8 DegreesTip 4 DegreesTorque Spec: Face Plate 5.5NmTorque Spec: Controls 5.5Nm
