The Pride FTL Youth 22.2mm Top/Front Load Stem is a black anodized, lightweight CNC aluminum stem with a four-bolt faceplate and side branding, designed for mounting handlebars to a bike steerer tube.

Description

The Pride FTL is a hybrid front load and top load stem built for BMX race, and this Youth version has been developed for younger riders with weight cut back as far as possible. It is CNC machined from a single block of 6061-T6 aluminium and runs a very low rise, which drops the bar and makes the bike feel more responsive and playful.

The underside is flat so it does not catch the top tube in a fall, and the 48mm handlebar clamp face holds a 22.2mm bar steady. It is also offered in a 35mm length, which is handy if the Rider Area feels too large or you are about to move up to a bigger frame. User weight limit is 45kg.

Features

Hybrid front and top load. Not quite a top load, not quite a front load: the FTL sits between the two and lowers your bar position.
Built for younger racers. The Youth version is optimised for weight, with a 45kg user weight limit.
Flat underside. The flat face beneath the stem is there to avoid contact with the top tube in a fall.
48mm handlebar clamp. A wide clamp face holds a 22.2mm race bar rigid when you are pulling on it out of the gate.
Just 172 grams. Weighed in the 35mm length, machined from a single block of 6061-T6 aluminium.
