ZIPP SL 145 STEM UD CARBON 2012

 The Zipp SL 145 CARBON STEM is known as one of the stiffest carbon stems on the market also used not only for road bikes but mountain also, this stiffness gives you excellent control of the front end of the bike.

The SL145™ stem is a perfect example of the determination our engineers display when faced with a challenge. It requires 50 sections of hand-wrapped carbon cloth, titanium bolts sourced from the same Italian producer used by the Ducati® MotoGP racing program, and a stainless steel insert within the anodized black faceplate.

Simply put, the SL145 was not easy to design and it’s not easy to produce. But the result is the stiffest, strongest all-carbon stem available – as verified by EFBe Laboratory. The SL145 is a rock-solid connection from bars to bike that weighs just 135 g (100 mm length). It’s available in lengths from 80mm to 130mm with +/- 12 degree angle and 31.8 mm clamp.

Each stem is wrapped by hand from more than 50 pieces of precision-cut carbon cloth with machined aluminium yokes at the steerer and stem clamp areas.

The elegant, forged aluminium faceplate is highly polished with a very thin stainless steel insert to ensure maximum stiffness and durability. To find the M4 titanium bolts, we left no stone unturned and sourced from the same Italian facility that produces the ones used by Ducati's MotoGP racing program
