HOPE Gravity 35 mm Stem | Aluminum MTB Stem
Attributes: Aluminum, MTB Cycling
Unlock unparalleled control and precision on the most demanding trails with the HOPE Gravity 35mm Stem. Engineered specifically for the modern era of aggressive mountain biking, this stem is the definitive upgrade for your Enduro, Downhill, or long-travel trail bike. With the evolution of bike geometry and the increasing capability of gravity-focused machines, we saw a requirement for a new stem that could meet these intense demands. The HOPE Gravity stem is the answer, delivering the perfect combination of lightness and stiffness. While weighing just 38 grams more than the trail-oriented AM stem, it achieves a level of stiffness that is significantly greater than the previous DH model, giving you the confidence to push your limits.
Crafted with meticulous attention to detail in Barnoldswick, UK, every HOPE Gravity Stem is a masterpiece of engineering. Each unit is fully CNC machined from a solid billet of 2014 T6 Aluminium, an aerospace-grade material renowned for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and fatigue resistance. This advanced manufacturing process allows for optimum machining, where every gram of unnecessary material is strategically removed without compromising the structural integrity or stiffness of the stem. The result is a component that provides an immediate and noticeable improvement in steering response and front-end feedback, translating to more precise line choices and unflinching stability through rock gardens, drops, and high-speed corners.
The innovative design of the Gravity stem incorporates individual clamps for the handlebars and a simple, highly effective “no gap” clamping system. This ensures a more secure and even clamping force across the full width of the handlebar, which is especially crucial for protecting delicate carbon bars from stress points. This user-friendly design also simplifies installation, allowing for consistent and accurate torque application. Furthermore, the opposing steerer clamp bolts work in unison to provide exceptionally rigid steering characteristics, eliminating any hint of flex between your bars and your fork. For the dedicated gravity rider who refuses to compromise on performance, the HOPE Gravity Stem offers the ultimate fusion of strength, stiffness, and lightweight design for complete command of your ride.
