Handlebar within reach!
Pros
Manufacturing of stem is top notch. It fit perfectly on the fork stem. Handlebar opening and stem opening dimensions were done correctly -- no issues installing the stem and torquing the fasteners. The 60 mm length of the stem made it easier for me to reach the handlebars as I'm only 5 ft 8 inches tall.
Cons
No cons at all.
Other Thoughts
The customer service person/owner of the bike shop helped me select the correct stem and return the other one that was incorrect in size. He was very professional and polite.
Easy install right size
Made a huge difference in my bike fit, improved performance and ergo.

It's a great value. At this price you worry about bolt heads or threads stripping out, but not with this one. Would absolutely buy again.

Other Thoughts
This probably the fourth stem I've tried, trying to dial in my old rigid fork Mountain bike as a trekker.
The reason it fits is because Modern bike is the only place I know of where you can see all the choices of length, angle, bar diameter etc. in on place. I knew the sizes that didn't fit, and from the list In could deduce which one would. Thanks, ModernBIKE.
Perfect for what I needed it for
Pros
Solid equipment, came with nice things like pre-greased bolts.
Cons
Not their fault but I ended up adjusting my geometry in the wrong way and had to stop using it.
Works
What can I say. It works and looks good.
Super product
Pros
Excellent fit and finish. High quality hardware. Quick shipment. Great parts selection.

HandleBar Stem
Well made. Good value
Pros
I am an OGIL (old guy in lycra). Riding a LiteSpeed Veneto titanium. Pain in the back of my neck was becoming the limiting factor on my rides. This is a practical device to give a more upright riding position. It is well made, easy to install and seems to be plenty strong for recreational riding. I have been using it for a month and it has improved the comfort of my bike.
Cons
None
Other Thoughts
A no-frills product that gets the job done for a reasonable price. Recommended.

Pros
Good looking, fine finish and lightweight -- 2-D forged AL-6061-T6 should be strong.

Other Thoughts
Just what was needed to adjust the setup on my brides Mountain Bike. She was riding 10 miles to and from work and wanted a little tweak to the setup on her bars.
Good, lightweight road stem
Pros
Inexpensive and much lighter than most adjustable stems included with cheaper road bikes. Not much else to say, it's a stem, it's light, and it does the job.
Cons
None to speak of, this is an uncomplicated component

Pros
strong, nice workmanship.
Cons
unable to find any cons.

Stem for more comfortable riding position
Pros
Light, quality construction
Cons
None
Other Thoughts
This stem brings the handle bars up and closer for a more upright riding position.
Exactly as promised.
Pros
Cheap. Look good.
Cons
None if used as intended.
Other Thoughts
I bought these for a single speed townie build with matching same brand riser bars. In that capacity they have worked just fine and stayed looking sharp. They are clearly not intended for heavy XC or more riding. But for your daily city whip the combo is just fine and seemingly will last a while and look good doing so.
Excellent stem!!!
Pros
Refinement is excellent!
Paintjob is absolutely perfect!
Cons
None
Other Thoughts
What impresses me the most is the paintjob on this stem! It almost looks as good as a German luxury automobile, it's that good!
The welding seems to be solid and high quality!
I also enjoy the allen-head bolts since an allen wrench fits in snugly and deeper than a conventional allen head screw!
Modernbike prices are insanely low (not to mention the fair shipping costs)!!!
