CONTEC Boreal 31.8 mm Stem
Elevate your performance and gain a competitive edge with the CONTEC Boreal 31.8 mm stem, meticulously engineered for the demands of modern Road Cycling and gravel riding. This premium stem is the ultimate upgrade for cyclists seeking to optimize their bike´s aerodynamics, stiffness, and overall responsiveness. The Boreal is designed to cut through the air, providing a tangible advantage whether you´re on a solo breakaway or pushing the pace in the peloton.
The defining characteristic of the Boreal is its flattened, aerodynamic profile. This special design is not just for looks; it is a purpose-built feature that minimizes wind resistance and helps you save precious watts at high speeds. The streamlined shape is further enhanced by an innovative integrated ahead cap, which creates a seamless, clean transition from the stem to the steerer tube, contributing to both its sleek aesthetic and its wind-cheating capabilities.
Performance is not just about aerodynamics; it´s about power transfer. The CONTEC Boreal excels with its exceptionally high torsional stiffness. This rigidity ensures that every ounce of your effort, especially during high power in a sprint or on a steep climb, is translated directly into forward momentum without any wasteful flex. Experience a cockpit that feels solid, direct, and incredibly responsive, giving you the confidence to push your limits.
Constructed from robust and lightweight 6061 Aluminum, the Boreal stem achieves a perfect balance between strength and low weight, tipping the scales at just 195g (for the 110mm length). This ensures durability and reliability without adding unnecessary bulk to your bike. The -8° tilt angle encourages a more aggressive, performance-oriented riding position, allowing you to get lower and more aerodynamic. This makes it an ideal choice for competitive racers and serious enthusiasts looking to fine-tune their fit for maximum efficiency.
