The redesigned No. 22 titanium stem is non-integrated
In the world of high-end bikes, it's becoming less common to see non-integrated cockpit components released. And the redesigned titanium stem from custom frame and component fabricator No. 22 Bicycles is just that: a traditional design meant to complement any bike, and just happens to pair particularly well with the brand's own framesets and headsets. The Johnstown, NY-based builders claim the updated stem is lighter and stronger than the previous version and now offers an optional, custom-designed out-front computer mount for an additional US$199. The size range has also expanded to include lengths from 70 mm to 120 mm, with 0-degree or +/-6-degree rises. Finish options are raw, high polish, or anodized, at a cost of US$495. The claimed weight for a 100 mm version is 181.07 g, with the computer mount at 22.52 g (37.07 g including hardware). No. 22
