The Ritchey WCS Trail stem represents our first stem specifically designed for today's trail bikes with 5 to 6 inches of travel and wide handlebars. More than just an improved version of our other stems, with the Trail stem we've revised the patented C260 clamp for a 220° version that fits a wider variety of handlebars, while offering a dramatic increase in stiffness and strength over competitors' designs. Using 2014 Forged 3D alloy, the WCS Trail stem offers superior strength while remaining lightweight. The extra-wide bar collar takes stiffness to the next level, fits most riser handlebars and ensures confident control on the trail.
