Description
The stem Pride Racing FTL in the 22.2 mm version is the classic variant of the famous stem from the French brand. Designed to offer an excellent compromise between lightness, rigidity and design, it is specifically engineered to accommodate all standard market handlebars with a 22.2 mm diameter (in Chromoly steel or Aluminium).
Fully CNC machined from a 6061-T6 aluminium block, this Top Load stem benefits from extensive hollowing to eliminate unnecessary excess material. It delivers optimal steering precision and a resolutely premium look for riders of all levels.
What is the difference between this model and the FTL HD version? The main difference lies in the handlebar clamping diameter. This model is 22.2 mm (classic standard), whereas the HD version is 31.8 mm (Oversize). This classic model is generally lighter and offers a much wider choice of handlebars.
Is it compatible with carbon handlebars? Yes, provided the carbon handlebar has a clamping zone with a standard diameter of 22.2 mm. Simply make sure to use a torque wrench to respect the tightening torques required for carbon.
Who is it aimed at? It suits all riders, from young riders progressing to adults, who are looking for a high-performance, stylish and lightweight stem without needing to switch to a full Oversize system.
