Ritchey WCS Chicane B2 Stem for 1-1\/8″ Pivot – 10° \/ Matte Black

The original Ritchey WCS Chicane stem offers cyclists an innovative design that provides increased aerodynamics combined with a stealthy aesthetic. In a nod to riders wanting a more traditional steering interface, the new WCS Chicane B2 replaces the original Chicane’s hidden internal clamp with a two-bolt steering clamp. The new Chicane B2 retains the smooth articulated faceplate and sleek aesthetics of its innovative sibling for a more aerodynamic interface with the bar – improving drag reduction. It’s a stylish party up front, with practical stuff in the back.Inspired by life, the new Chicane B2 uses the same legendary 220u00b0 clamping interface found on many other Ritchey stems. This not only grips the bar confidently with reduced stress, but it’s also less likely to damage the carbon bars. Forged from a lightweight 2014 alloy, the Chicane B2 beautifully blends performance, style and functionality to deliver a beautiful stem that is as stylish as it is fast.Features Material: 2014 alloy Faceplate bolts: black (Torx T20) Head bolts: black stainless steel (Hex 4mm) Lengths: 80 – 130 mm Angle: 10u00b0 Clamp diameter: 31.8 mm Clamp width: 48 mm Pivot: 1-1/8″ (28.6 mm) Pivot height: 42 mm Weight: 130 g (100mm) Color: Matte BlackComes with: Matching top cap included Aerodynamic shaped front end with 2 bolt steering clamp Handlebar hinge clampWarning:Marine conditions, salt water or sweat can be incredibly caustic to metals, especially aluminum alloy.
