Introducing the TS stem

After many iterations, the TS Stem was developed in-house using CAD and 3D printing to achieve this modern looking mountain bike stem.

The new Gusset TS Stem was developed with a desire to bring a sleek, stiff, up-to-date, confidence inspiring stem to the market at an accessible price point. Developed using CAD and 3D printing technology, with input from team athletes, the TS Stem went through various iterations before the design was finalised.

Here is an image showing the drawing and first version of the 3D printed TS Stem in blue and silver to show the faceplate interface and proof of concept.

From this point in the project we knew we were onto something and it was time to gain feedback from the team riders.

The stem features an innovative faceplate with a Stiff Upper Lip connecting piece, helping to locate the faceplate into the stem body and increase stiffness.

This results in accurate steering and uncompromised feedback through the bar, whilst keeping the open look of a modern stem.
Constructed from CNC 6061 Aluminium will initially be available in 32mm reach (40mm also now available), zero rise and 35mm clamp in Black, Silver and Grey to compliment the recently launched Matt Jones Signature Bar.
