Hi fellow Canyon owners
Just a quick heads up for you all
I have just recieved the brand new Ritchey Superlogic C260 carbon stem in 1 1/4" size
For a 130mm length the weight came in dead on 125 grams !
Not only saving almost 30grams from the 4 Axis stem it replaced it also matches perfectly
the matt black finish, sorry no pics just yet but it does look amazing .

I have yet to ride it, but going by the cross section one would assume it will be stiff or at least due to its weight have a high stiffness to weight ratio.
As for the bolts they are a Torx head M4 bolt, very tiny indeed.

Anyone know where I can order one that is willing to ship to the US?
That's good that they changed the bolts now. Before, people where stripping them because of how soft the bolts were. Anyway, got a ride report yet?

that's a lot of cash for the 8 grams it'd save me over my 130 4axis or syntace....

Hi Jekyll man
My 4 axis came in at 155 grams in 130mm and the C260 came in at 125 for the same length, thats more than 8 grams, is yours a different version ? Just asking as I was surprised by the weight saved !
Cheers

Both my syntace and wcs weighed the same as far as i can remember when i changed it.
For obvious reasons i'm not taking it off just to do it again
