FSA K Force Light Stem

For some components, 'lightweight' and 'carbon' can be dirty words. In the early 2000's weight weenie craze, the peloton suffered under the malleable malfeasance of poorly designed, lightweight cockpits. Well, those days are finally past us, in part, because of pristine designs like the FSA K Force Light Stem having taught the cycling world a very important lesson innovate or don't bother. The K Force Light Stem does just that by using a total carbon and titanium construction that offers up rigidity, style, and massive weight savings. FSA's K Force Light Stem features a 100% monocoque carbon fiber body construction. This design achieves an equilibrium between weight savings and ride quality without sacrificing on either polarity. The K Force Light provides a stiff and direct platform to the bars, while weighing in around an astoundingly low 150g. And while most weight shaving stems feel more malleable than rigid, the K Force's design avoids the wet noodle zeitgeist by eliminating any steel or alloy from the stem. You heard that right. The K Force Light uses only titanium hardware to secure to the steer tube and to attach the carbon faceplate. The FSA K Force Light Stem is available in four sizes from 100 to 130mm. Please note that this stem is only compatible with 1 18in steer tubes and 31. 8mm clamp diameter bars.
