Nice fit. Easily adjusts (with screw on bottom/underside). Nice removable clamp for handlebars (don't have to slide it out one side and can leave grips/levers on).However, mt handlebars now wobble. My one piece stem before was solid! This is the first stem I've ever experienced that wobbles/is loose. 🤪Picture is at max height and 10°.I'm going to try it, but I don't have confidence in this stem. I'll either get a new stem that matches where I end up liking this one, or maybe it's finally time to upgrade to a new frame. 🤔

I have had this for quite a while and has been great. Recently it was a little loose and if I hit the brakes hard, it would pivot and my handlebars would go forward. I tried to tighten them using the obvious hex/allen nuts on the side, but it didn't do anything. I was about to order a different brand but I noticed a reviewer saying to tighten it at the bottom. I looked and sure enough, the allen screw underneath was loose. I am submitting a picture showing this. This stem works well on my 2005 Raleigh C30 bike.

I replaced the old stem on my beach cruiser. This new stem was great. Well made and I could easily set it ups

With the stock stem with my Schwinn Wayfarer Cruiser, I was hunched over in that at the end of a ride my back and shoulders were in pain due to be hunched over. This stem allowed my handlebars to be higher and more towards my body so I was upright and pain free! Just what I needed, fit my 1" forks perfectly and tight. Piece feels solid (much more than the stock stem) and sturdy, no concerns about movement.

Great, tough, handlebar stem! This is exactly what I needed for my beach cruiser. I was just lacking a couple inches handlebar grip to help me sit up in perfect, comfortable position for myself. Installation was really quite simple, removing previous stem from neck, then removing one side of brake and 7spd shifter, the handlebars (while someone held all these), then slipping handlebar into Sunlite stem, then brake and shifter back on. There will be minor adjustments, loosening again and tightening, to fine tune the right fit for you, but overall this is a great adjustable stem to customize your riding position.Highly recommend this Sunlite stem.

I am 48 years old. I have been on some trekking bike trips that lasted over 4 days/3 nights and covered up to 80 miles. Being bent over with my old handle bars caused discomfort in my back and pain in the palms of my hands. This adjustable quill helps me ride with a more upright posture. I have found it to work extremely well. I used it in conjunction with theBicycle Cable Hanger (25.4 - 1 inch with Adjusting Barrel Black) because my old brake cables were routed through the handle bar neck on my old trusty Specialized Rockhopper. It enables me ride comfortably. You can also make trail adjustments as long as you have an allen wrench.

I love this stem. I was, of course, looking for a way to convert to a more favorable , more upright riding position and this does the trick. First, there seems to be some confusion about the dimensions, so let me clear that up. It replaces a stem inside the fork which is 1 inch in diameter or 25.4 mm. The 180 mm is describing the length up to the pivot point and 90 mm is the length of the pivoting portion, the part that has the handle bar clamp. The 60 degrees they refer to is 2/3rds of the distance from perpendicular to the lower portion till it's completely upright , which is not achievable. The handlebar clamp accommodates a 1-inch diameter handlebar, measured at the thickest point, right in the middle. You have the choice of this 90 mm pivoting portion or one which is 110 mm. I chose the 90 mm one because at it's maximum 60 degree extension it would not be as far forward as one which is longer. It looks quite professional, unlike the original which had welds and didn't look that great. See photos to see what 60 degrees setting looks like.
