The new stem is available in both 31.8mm and 35.0mm clamp diameters, with both clamp models offered with a zero degree rise in 35mm, 50mm, and 65mm lengths.<\/p>\n<p>While ENVE is best known for their innovative carbon rim and wheelset designs, the US-based brand has been strategically introducing aluminum products into their lineup, the most notable of late being ENVE\u2019s rim and disc brake compatible road hubs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo be successful as a carbon manufacturer, you must first have an intimate understanding of machining. Behind every successful carbon design, is an equally clever mold design that was machined typically from aluminum or steel. In short, we\u2019ve been machining metals at ENVE from the beginning. If you ever have the opportunity to tour ENVE, you\u2019ll see that a good percentage of our manufacturing facility is dedicated to our machine shop. Our machining expertise has played a crucial role in ENVE\u2019s success from the beginning,\u201d stated VP of Engineering, Scott Nielson.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery type-rectangular tiled-gallery-unresized\" data-original-width=\"1200\" data-carousel-extra='{"blog_id":1,"permalink":"https:\\\/\\\/www.bikeworldnews.com\\\/2020\\\/11\\\/21\\\/enve-releases-alloy-mountain-stem\\\/","likes_blog_id":4425502}' itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\" > <div class=\"gallery-row\" style=\"width: 1200px;

In addition, we wanted to forge the billet before machining which allows for a stronger, more fatigue resistant stem. Given that we can\u2019t forge locally, we have chosen a manufacturing partner who has forging capabilities in-house,\u201d explained Scott Nielson.<\/p>\n<p>The new ENVE Alloy Mountain Stems are a premium-grade product designed to be paired with carbon handlebars, and more specifically ENVE M Series carbon handlebars. The new stems feature a \u201cno gap\u201d faceplate design as well as smooth beveled surfaces everywhere the handlebar interfaces in the bar clamp \u2013this is to reduce the likelihood of sensitive carbon laminates being damaged or crushed during installation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe introduction of the alloy mountain stem will allow more riders access to a complete ENVE cockpit and therefore ENVE performance. Our M Series carbon stem retains its position as the benchmark mountain bike stem, while the new alloy stem provides the same strength and reliability, at a slight weight and ride quality penalty,\u201dstated VP ofProduct, Jake Pantone.<\/p>\n<p>Other features include blind steerer-clamp bolt holes, and smooth contours on the back of the stem to protect shorts and knees from snagging on exposed threads or sharp machined edges. All stem hardware is stainless-steel for hard-wearing, reliable,corrosion-free performance. The ENVE Alloy Mountain Stem is now available at a retail price of US $125, CAD $175, AUD$199, \u00a3135, and \u20ac145 respectively.<\/p>\n<p>For more information or to purchase, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.enve.com\/en\/products\/alloy-mountain-stem\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ENVE.com<\/a>, or your nearest ENVE Ride Center\/Retail Partner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The ENVE Alloy Mountain Stem is a new range of cold-forged, precision-machined, purpose-built aluminum mountain bike stems that maintain the company’s design principles and are optimized for pairing with their M Series carbon handlebar offering.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":335,"featured_media":94829,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"neve_meta_sidebar":"","neve_meta_container":"","neve_meta_enable_content_width":"","neve_meta_content_width":0,"neve_meta_title_alignment":"","neve_meta_author_avatar":"","neve_post_elements_order":"","neve_meta_disable_header":"","neve_meta_disable_footer":"","neve_meta_disable_title":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[85],"tags":[20043,15646,20501,28074,26953,19907,9774,20530,19882,23866,5270,12383,30988],"class_list":["post-94825","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-product-and-technology-news","tag-alloy","tag-aluminum","tag-clamp","tag-design","tag-engineering","tag-enve","tag-handlebars","tag-jake-pantone","tag-machined","tag-manufacturing","tag-mountain-bike","tag-performance","tag-ride-quality"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.bikeworldnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/ENVE_20191115_IM26710.jpg?fit=1800%2C1202&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[],"jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bikeworldnews.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/94825","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bikeworldnews.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bikeworldnews.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bikeworldnews.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/335"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bikeworldnews.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=94825"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.bikeworldnews.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/94825\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bikeworldnews.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/94829"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bikeworldnews.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=94825"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bikeworldnews.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=94825"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bikeworldnews.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=94825"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
