About this deal

Redshift have never claimed to be the inventor of a suspension stem, but they are certainly the most revolutionary. Many times have we heard people say: In general, you'll find the +30 deg stem provides a more upright, comfort-oriented fit, whereas the +/-6 deg stem puts you in a more performance-oriented riding position (standard for a typical road bike). Not sure what size seatpost you have currently? There are a couple different ways to find out.• Most seatposts have the diameter printed somewhere near the bottom of the post. You'll need to remove the seatpost from the bike frame (mark your existing seatpost height with a bit of tape before you remove it so you can replace it easily), and look for a number like 27.2, 30.9, or 31.6 (etc.). That is the diameter of the post. Any bag that just attaches to the saddle or just attaches to the post is fine. But when you attach to both the post and the saddle you need to account for the relative motion of the saddle to the post. This means that if you cinch down the bag when off the bike it might have some movement when you get on the saddle and compress the post a bit - this might not be a problem but it might be something that is an issue. Redshift Sports are genuine innovators. Their first foray into cycling component design was the clip-on aerobars and dual seatpost for triathletes. Essentially these products were designed for the beginner triathlete aiming to simply and easily convert their road bike into a triathlon bike position in only a few seconds (there are some images below of these products).

Ride faster - feeling refreshed from the energy that is normally wasted suspending your body as it is converted into forward motion The easiest way to determine your handlebar size is to see if it's printed on the handlebar. This will require removing your current stem faceplate. If you are unable to measure the length of your existing stem then choose 100 mm. This is one of the most common lengths and tends to be a good fit for most people.

The easiest way to determine your steerer tube size is to use a pair of calipers to directly measure the diameter or take your bike to the local bike shop and they will be able to measure it for you. Alternatively, most of the time a manufacturer will list this under their specifications in the Frame/Fork section. Make sure you are looking at the correct model year as these sizes can change year to year. The elastomers naturally dampen the feeling of the road or gravel, creating a smoother ride. The effective suspension travel is up to 20mm on a drop bar road bike and up to 10mm on a flat bar road bike. The Utility Mount puts a small section of tube in front of the stem that provides a location to mount anything you would normally put on your handlebar (bike computer, phone, light, etc.). Take control - customizing your suspension feel to float over obstacles so you can maintain control Stem Details: On top of offering our advice and guidance on the products listed that we personally use, know and have experience with, we understand pricing is a big part of making your decision too.

We're on the doorstep of Flyup417 Bike Park, Cranham Woods, Cotswolds Way and an hour away from the Forest of Dean. The elastomer life depends on a number of factors including rider weight, riding conditions, and how much you ride. In general we expect the elastomers to last more than 3-5 years under "normal" recreational riding conditions. The material that we use for our elastomers enables them to holds up really well in harsh environments (moisture, oils, temperature change, compression cycling, etc.). We see very little degradation and no discernible change in how much they compress under different loads after a very large amount of test cycles where they are compressed and released which gives us confidence that they will stand up to years of use.

To understand more, Redshift Sports have answered critics in this post. Will the stem bounce or flex when I am climbing out of the saddle or sprinting? So overall marks out of 10. Well I give the stem a really solid 9.5 out of 10. With only 0.5 mark lost for the boxy look with every other aspect full marks.

Here at Slam69 we have a collection point for any donations you may have. These guys are creative and innovative, even if parts are no longer fit for bikes, they will create something awesome! Best method: Use a pair of calipers to directly measure the diameter or take your bike to the local bike shop and they will be able to measure it for you.
