Description
The front of the new Ritchey Switch stem features the proven Ritchey C220 handlebar clamp design found on many Ritchey stems, but we've increased its width for added rigidity. Plus, everything else about this innovative stem is new and designed to stealthily hide cables in the headset and frame. Up to four cables - for the rear brake, derailleur or electronics - are placed in a single closed channel on the underside of the stem, which then integrates effortlessly with the Logic-E 1.5" headset from Ritchey - neatly routing the cables into the frame. The Ritchey Switch stem includes a matching compression cap.
