After the successful launch of the Integra direct mount stem at the end of last year, Renthal have reacted to feedback from their athletes and are developing a new Integra stem with a 10mm rise. Matt Wragg snapped this beauty on a recent visit to Renthal’s HQ in the UK. This new design isn’t set to replace the current Integra, but merely offer the option of running your bike with a higher front end and a set up preferred on the steeper courses found on the world cup tour.
Here’s a shot of Sam Hill’s bike from last year. The Monster Energy/ Specialized team ran a 10mm spacer under their stem as well as running 38mm bars to give their riders an optimized position for attacking the nasty courses found overseas.
