Race Face Atlas Stem

This stem is built for aggressive riding, specifically covering all-mountain, freeride, and downhill disciplines. It is engineered to handle the high stress and abuse of technical trails while remaining lightweight enough for general mountain biking.

The Atlas stem is compatible with standard 31.8mm diameter handlebars and 1-1/8 inch (28.6mm) steerer tubes. It is a threadless stem, so ensure your fork setup matches these common industry standards before purchasing.

This design helps distribute clamping force more evenly across the handlebar. By minimizing stress risers, it reduces the risk of handlebar fatigue and failure, which is critical when you are riding rough, technical terrain.

No, the Race Face Atlas stem has a fixed 0-degree angle. It is designed to provide a consistent, reliable cockpit setup without the potential mechanical weaknesses that can sometimes come with adjustable-angle components.

The opposing bolt configuration allows for maximum clamping power on the steerer tube without requiring excessive torque. This ensures a secure connection to your fork while protecting the steerer tube from being crushed or over-stressed.

At 155g, the Atlas stem strikes a solid balance between durability and weight. While there are lighter cross-country stems available, this model prioritizes structural integrity and strength for more demanding, gravity-oriented riding.
