Enduro has unquestionably evolved ever closer to Downhill. The Enduro MK3 Stem is all you need for hitting the trails with wingsuit type accuracy. This Stem was born out of rider’s demands for precision and for those moments when you have to be inch-perfect. Taking design elements from Burgtec's World Cup-winning Direct Mount MK3 Stem and splicing these with their critically acclaimed Enduro MK2 Stem. The Stem was developed specifically with Pro’s and Bro’s alike. It was obvious they all live for the same challenge of pushing their own limits. As riders, they want a Stem that inspires confidence to change lines through the middle of a rock garden like it’s no big deal or slap the inside of a turn and translate all their weight to front-wheel traction. Providing ear to ear grins and saying to mates at the bottom of a trail, “Did you see that?”. From the start of the design process, it became clear that they wanted extra rigidity. To yield this, the Stem would need to be made using a forging process - a new thing for them. The result of which allowed them to achieve a more intricate shape than machining alone. It involves applying a huge amount of force to redirect the grain flow of the material. As a result, this gives superior strength, fatigue, and impact resistance. Another area where they made a significant improvement in rigidity was by increasing the clamping surface area on the steerer tube. They’ve vastly increased this to give a stout, rock-solid feel and as close to the MK3 Direct Mount Stem as they could. Furthermore, everything is held securely by stainless steel bolts to ensure there is no rust even in the grimmest weather. In addition, and like every Burgtec product, it’s fully CNC machined and anodized in all your favourite flavours. Tested with the world’s fastest jibbers and sendiest racers, this stem has everything you need to hit all those rowdy racing lines or pull that little bit harder off that big sender.
