My first proper mountain bike was a DMR trailstar, I live to see DMR getting some love from one of my favourite cycling RUclipsrs!
I'm 6'7"/2m so I rode big frames and a lot of the second hand forks I bought had short steerers. I used to take Red Neck BMX stems and throw it in the mill and ream it out to 1 1/8". Sometimes I'd attack it gently with a 7/8" ball end mill to add lightness.
I have dmr stems on all my bikes , not because my steering tube is too short but it has the rise I’m looking for , the looks , stiff and no creaking and I like the no gap top clamp . Ive been a fan of Dmr since I started Mtb , I’ve owned two of their frames and my current bike has dmr pedals , grips and stem . I have the handlebars but I like a little more back sweep than 8 degrees .
I like this stem for the same reason, my steerer is not too short
I really wish I knew this info sooner! This was super helpful and I’m glad this solution exists. The price is quite high though and I wish there were longer stem options but maybe it would be too much leverage with that short of a stack height. I hope this video hits the right algorithm and gets tons of views. I feel this issue happens way more often, especially with how easy it is to buy used forks thanks to the ease of the internet.
Deity Copperhead is also a great solution!
Those cheap wake stems off Amazon also have a really short stack height if the dmr is more than you want to spend .
I have one, measured the height at 29mm
I did this exact thing about a year ago - bought second hand fox factory forks, neglected to look at the steerer tube dimensions in the ad, needed a solution, found this stem and was able to make eveything work. Even have a small spacer!
Have the same stem on my marino but in polished silver, looks really bling! Love it!
DMR constantly making nice stuff. Eric constantly making great videos.
This will bring out a lot of forks from the parts bins 👍
I've had that stem a year now, I like it. Don't have a short steer tube but it looks good!
I have that stem but the original version with the wedge clamps. Kinda like an odyssey elemental stem. I love it.
I gave in and bought the same step outside of a short stack the way it looks is also worth the money
Oh sick! Now I can continue to carelessly chop my forks off every time. 🥸
Went from a size small to size large frame of the same model Transition and this was the only way to reuse the fork. They’re really a great solution.
That was my solution a few years back, still running same stem and fork.
Bought exactly this stem for this reason, too. Great product but it made my already high rise bars too slammed and got sore hards. Solution, fork steerer extender. Works like an extra long expanding top cap. So far it's been great. Cheers ❤ Btw my fork was 2nd hand, and yes, I also wish DMR made the Defy with a bit higher rise and longer reach for the flats and climbing as it's rather twitchy, too.
My buddy recommended this stem. I bought a fork second hand steering tube is shy I want to run a higher spacing
I’m writing this comment for the sake of interactions such as this being good for your channel.
I like you.
I put one on my Mountain Cycle San Andreas that I am restomoding. Because yeah, the Steerer was to short. This thing is going to break the Vintage bike internet. Wanna do a video on it?
That’s what I use on my Marino. 😊
Yeah that's good to know I bought a second hand fork that had been cut and was too short for the stack on a regular stem, I ended up buying surly sunrise bars and a bmx stem with a low stack height if I'd known about this stem or been able to find any other low stack stems I would have preferred it
I found that the deity copperhead was short at 30! This is next level.
i wish i left my steerer tube longer as i'm now toying with the idea of double stems to have a rigid connection to the handlebar bag
It is also just a sick stem for the price.
Has a nice downhill look too, but single crown
Hipping into that metal mini is terrifying
There are steerer tube extensions, their mechanism is similar to a carbon-specific expander plug.
Idk how well they work, but I haven't heard of failures
I used a long expander plug in a steel fork for that reason and it didn’t move and I never died
@@thebr0wnhornet same here. No problems and still got all my teeth
I could've sworn I saw some specialty shop in UK doing steerer tube replacements and thought of that syntace stem of yours a while ago. Probably not worth it for regular forks, but for nice kashima ones...
your welcome
Hi sir, mine is 25mm remaining on exposed steer tube...will this work? Thanks
That's great for us "if a job is worth doing, it's worth measuring once & cutting twice" folks.
I measured once, cut twice, and the damn things still too short
So can you run it upside down or is there not enough clearance?
Or, get a new steerer pressed into your fork. (If you have nothing or not a lot to clamp to). Not sure on the options in the US but in the UK, costs just over £100 for a new steerer.
What's the difference between defy and defy2 stems?
When will we see your review of the prototype Poseidon wood steerer tube fork seen around 0:45?
Don't hold out on us, man!
😉
I wonder if there's something similar for road bikes.
I wonder what video will STEM from this one
You do realise you can have the old fork steerer tube removed and a nice new one put in, probably cheaper than buying a new stem.
I bet its not cheaper than this free stem I was given
The original Hope stem is very low, the eBay Wake stems are knockoffs with the same profile
How is it that in my "3rd world msrket" country I have the option of putting a new steer tube, and it hasn't even been an option for you? Just wonder... no one offers that service in Canada?
It is apparently a 5mm rise, not 20mm brodie.
You can also replace a steerer...
There is one solution, it gives you about/almost 80mm of extension. Downside is it’s very tricky to install.
Amazon has a Steerer tube extender, It works like a expander plug plus extra length for the cut steerer tube.
Downside is, I might be doing something wrong on the install that it still slips slightly, Might just be too heavy for the thing. 😅
I wonder if this thing has sufficient clamp pressure to be used on a carbon fork 🤔
2:34 new fork or a new freme .... or just replace steerer tube
Getting a new steerer tube installed is only $200ish installed.
Why not just get a new steerer tube fitted.
