It's still the same but make sure to get the 7050 aluminium version. The 6061 is a bit heavier.

They're sold by SJS in the UK, which is a bit weird for a WW item. SJS is the Britisher's place to go for a 20 kg expedition bike.

I recently ordered a Procraft PRC ST2 stem from R2. My Kalloy UNO 90mm (7 degree) stem with the normal steel bolts is 101g. The Procraft PRC ST2 90mm 6 degree stem is 91g with the stock bolts.

I'm just a bit hestitant to run the Procraft stem because of the M4 bolts.

The Procraft stem is quite affordable (around 50EU).
Procraft PRC ST1 stems are my favourites! I’m using them last 15 years on all my bikes, both road and MTB. Very light, very strong, titanium bolts included.

AliExpress. I've bought like 5 or 6 in the last couple years. Great to have a few lengths hanging around to test out fits before buying integrated bars. Currently running an 80 on my XC bike and a 110 on my CX bike. Not sure if we're allowed to post links to AliEx here.

Edit: Baihang store is where I just got a coupe for $18. They have Choice which has a better return policy.

Yes, I bought a pair from them a few weeks back too.
And to repeat - you can drop another 10g by swapping all bolts to Ti (that upgrade, though, costs 1.5x of the stem itself, haha :D)

Has anyone seen these around as a -12? CCache advertise them in Australia but haven't seen them elsewhere.
