The DMR Defy35 stem is the perfect choice for your trail, dirt jump or all-mountain bike build. The CNC-machined MTB stem features a low stack height, a top-close clamp design, a 35mm reach, and a 5mm rise. The stem has a wide clamping area that enhances bar stability, and its compact length complements modern mountain bike geometry. For confidence-inspiring riding whatever riding-level you are at, choose a DMR Defy stem every time.
Also bear in mind, the Defy35 is not designed to be super-lightweight with tiny little bolts or flimsy construction that many MTB stems have these days – our Defy35 stem is built to last and built tough. Bikes that come with a long front centre, slack head angle, and fast-AF geometry will experience noticeable improvements with the DMR Defy stem.
"Warning: after you install this stem on your bike, you might forget about it entirely. It won't move, it won't make noise, it won't be damaged in a crash. Its shape won't remind you of its presence... it's perfect. The definition of fit and forget – the Defy Stem!" – Olly Wilkins
