FAQ:

How do I choose the right length and angle for my bike?

We put together a set of instructions that can help you determine the length and angle of your existing stem and provide guidance on what to chose based on riding style – check it out here.

How is the ShockStop Stem different from other suspension stems?

There are a lot of ways the ShockStop is different – so many in fact, we wrote a whole blog post about it. Check it out here.

Can I put the ShockStop Stem on my mountain bike?

Yes and No. The suspension travel on the ShockStop (1-2cm) is optimized for the types of bumps you typically encounter on roads and light trails. So, the ShockStop Stem is not going to provide the same suspension feel as a typical mountain bike front fork suspension, which will have closer to 10-15cm of travel. However, if you use your bike primarily on the lighter trails (i.e. not aggressive downhill) and you’re looking to take the edge off of an otherwise stiff frame (e.g. a bike with a rigid front fork), then the ShockStop could be exactly what you’re looking for. The ShockStop Stem is not designed to be used on a mountain bike riding on technical downhill singletrack and if used in these conditions could become damaged and lead to serious injury.
