The A35 all-mountain stem gets its name and shape from the A-axis in I9's five - axis machining centers. It uses a 35mm bar diameter, showing that every little detail counts. This stem is made of solid 7075 machined aluminum sourced from the US. It comes with six high - strength 316 stainless steel custom M5 bolts and has a 180 - degree wrap. The specifications include a 35.0mm bar clamp diameter, an aluminum material, stem angles of +9 deg and -9 deg, a rise of 5, an S.H.I.S. stem clamp diameter of 28.6, a stack height of 42, and it weighs 128 g for the 32mm size.
Using your A35 all - mountain stem is easy. First, make sure to clean the handlebar and the stem contact area before installation. Insert the handlebar into the stem's clamp, then use the included high - strength 316 stainless steel custom M5 bolts to secure it tightly. Adjust the stem angle to either +9 degrees or -9 degrees according to your riding preference. When it comes to maintenance, keep it clean by wiping it with a soft cloth regularly. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the aluminum material. Check the bolts periodically to ensure they are tight. If you notice any signs of wear or damage, it's a good idea to replace the stem for your safety.
