Title: Alienation Vault Stem
Post by: chownie on November 02, 2015, 09:20 AM: Has anyone got experience with this stem and company? I'm looking for components and saw this stem and it looks the nuts. I was looking at a BSD stem but prefer the look of this. Do split clamps hold the bars ok? I hope someone can help :-)

I would go with a BSD and save £30 or so..

I'm moving to a 'standard' style top load one now, one of the Stranger Machine stems, just because it looks like the S&M Challenger but half the price! ;D
