Answer Negative One Stem Review

Answer has been producing Handlebars for a long time. We have been running their Dorado fork for well over a year now and it has been brilliant. Getting the chance to test their -One Direct Mount Stem was something we were looking forward to.

  • Weight: 160gm
  • Stack Height: -20mm
  • Length: 50-55mm
  • Material: 7075 Series Alloy
  • Colors: Black, White
  • Hardware: A2 Stainless
  • Note: Will Not fit Dorado Flat crown in 50mm Setting
  • Faceplate: 62mm Wide

Answer -One DM Stem

The Negative One stem showed up and proved to be a good piece. It has clean lines and the finish on it is better then some and not quite as nice as some high end options out there. We weighed the stem and our scale read 158GM so their claimed weight seems spot on. 

Having your weight more over the front wheel is all the rage these days. With slacked out head angles and LSC loaded forks body english is more important than ever. This stem is light weight with a simple design and does as it claims.
