I'm building up a trail bike and am looking for a lightweight 70mm stem for the build. Don't want to go down the carbon road. Any ideas?

Thanks

Easton Haven is very light, stiff and looks awesome.

Raceface Turbine is very light, stiff, and looks a little bit more awesome, imo.

J,

I bought an eXotic Meta F black alloy for £12.25 from carboncycles.
Mine is 60mm and 6deg for OS bars and weighs 111g.
It is lighter than carbon, cheaper and just excellent.
Should have bought 2...hmmm.

Point One Racing at 139 grams and there's no top cap which saves weight but can be a hassle if you want to adjust the height.

an 80mm KCNC SC Wing weighs 91g - so I guess the 70 will be a bit lighter. My 90mm comes in at 98g.

The Raceface Turbine looks like a good bet. Cheers guys!
