Reverse Components Launches Machete Stem Line

Rampage level stems in single and dual crown options.

PRESS RELEASE: Reverse Components

With the Machete stem line, we set out to create the strongest, most confidence-inspiring stems we could produce — aimed at riders who want the burliest, direct interface between the bike and the handlebar possible. We prioritised strength over shaving grams, letting the CNC machined finish speak for itself.

D-2 SHIM TECHNOLOGY: The Machete stems feature our D-2 shim technology, allowing riders to run either 35mm or 31.8mm handlebars using our carefully engineered shim. This gives riders the flexibility to change handlebar diameters without changing stem, while also making it easier for shops and dealers to offer one stem that works with both standards. The stem comes stock without the shim, simply clip it in if you want to run 31.8mm diameter bars.

Tested and proven to exceed EFBE's Tri-Test Gravity standard (Category 5), the result is an incredibly direct, dependable interface built for the gnarliest riding scenarios. From Szymon Godziek running the Machete SC on his bar-spinnable Rampage bike, to Nico Vink surfing the backcountry mountains of Chile or our riders sending it at Hardline or LooseFest on the Direct Mount, it's a stem setup that will always leave you stoked on when you look down at your cockpit.

Machete Direct Mount and Machete Single Crown are available now.
