Kinekt Suspension Stem
Best comfort upgrade for cyclists seeking smoother rides.
This is the simplest way to upgrade a rigid bike into a plush, vibration-dampening machine. By adding a subtle layer of suspension right at the handlebars, you trade a tiny bit of steering stiffness for significantly less fatigue in your wrists and shoulders on long, rough rides.
