Ok its an adjustable stem which offers the user variab...le angles so the rider can choose which is preferential. First impressions is that its hard anodized so that will give it longer term durability to its finish and it seems a well sturdy item only being let down that the M8 bolt which secures the plate to the underside which keeps the head part rigid does come loose after riding over rough roads for some period so the option would be to use a thread lock fluid which can be applied to the threads and secures the bolt enough so vibration doesn't work it loose (if you decided that this was not enough and were not going to re-adjust the angle again then bearing retainer compound could be used but that does require heat to release the bolt if you ever needed to change the head angle) Otherwise i do feel that this item is a good buy and good quality and most people might not have any problem at all with the underside M8 retainer bolt, the choice is yours

quality materials and bolts..., fitted perfectly (1" tube although it comes with a spacer for 1 1/8) and allows for angle adjustments to be made for reach. does come with warning labels not to undo any of the bolts though - guess that covers them for legal issues?

Good stem but heavier than I thought. Bought for my wife's b...ike so she can select different riding positions. Bit fiddly to adjust.
