To all canyon users,
What after market stems do you use? I have been looking for quite a while for a replacement stem, but my retailers in my area dont carry any 1 1/4 stems and I am skeptical on buying online as I have read an article before that there is a possibility play with other similar sized stems on the market. Looking forward to your recommendations
Giant is on my list, and I am looking for expanding my list.
Giant: $50
Zipp: $132
Canyon bikes used to come with Ritchey WCS 4-Axis stems and I’m pretty sure they still make compatible 1.25" stems.
Ritchey makes the 4 Axis stem with 1 1/4" steerer clamp … +/-6 and +/-17 (Just installed a 110 +/-17 on my new TCR).
ITM also makes the X-One that has +/- 10 degree rise … but may not work on a lot of Aero bars due to the way it clamps to the handle bar.
Shimano Pro components has a +/-10 degree stem if you can find them.
You can get +/-8 degree stems from Giant (Ebay)
Outside of that, there are few options at this point.
I use a Ritchey C260 Superlogic 1 1/4 on my Ultimate CF SLX, it works perfectly.
It is very expensive however, unless you can find a good deal… I got mine from Germany for 109 EUR a year ago.
You can buy stems from Giant (maybe Contact Slr stem? Can’ remember the exact name. sorry) There’s another option.
Scott foil specific stem or integrated bars will fit.
My new culprit aero stem under development still will be 1.25 with shim to 1 1/8
No firm release date yet

Syncros Aero Stem RR1.0 - for the new Scott foil is 1 1/4" as well. Quoted weight is 165g for a 110. It is a UD Carbon/allow construction.
