Race Face Atlas Direct Mount Stem
Best direct-mount stem for aggressive downhill riders seeking precision and durability.
This direct-mount stem is built for riders who prioritize absolute steering precision and stiffness above all else. By locking directly into your downhill fork, it eliminates cockpit flex, though you sacrifice the adjustability of a traditional stem setup. It’s a bombproof, set-it-and-forget-it upgrade backed by a warranty that actually covers crashes.
