Paul 7/8" Boxcar Frontload Threadless Stem - Black - 50mm - USA Made
$ 147.50
The Boxcar stem was designed from the ground up to be stiff, strong and light. Paul went through several design iterations and believe they've reached the best combination of these three principles. Extensive real world and machine testing have proven this to be one strong stem. It is constructed of the highest quality American 2024 aerospace alloy and precision machined to .002” tolerance (that’s really tight for a stem).
All screws are pan head T25 Torx type screws in stainless steel. Why Torx? To encourage torque wrench usage and avoid strippage (People tend to overtighten faceplate bolts). Also the Torx head is wider, distributing stress better, and are the same wrench size as the ubiquitous rotor screws all makers use.
As usual, by letting the function and material properties dictate the shape of the product, Paul has come up with another often complimented and purposeful designs. Yes, it looks a little different, but with us there is always one good reason for this: to make it work as awesome as possible.
