The RR (Raised Reversed) stem is designed for Enduro riders who want to have the utmost control when going extremely fast. When riding with the RR stem you will feel how it improves your riding position, the maneuverability of your bike, and the cornering dynamics of your bike with its advanced Reversed offset steering geometry.

The Raised height:

Puts your arms at a better angle to the bars. This gives you the confidence to charge hard knowing that you won't feel like you will go over the bars.
Helps you ride with your arms properly bent so you have more room to move around before your arms are locked straight with no control.
Increases the distance between your hands and your feet and Raises them up for more leverage to maneuver the bike.
Helps you to ride with all of your weight supported through your feet and the bottom bracket with minimally loaded hands.
Allows a calmer and more comfortable attack position more like what you would use on a dirtbike.

The Reversed offset:

Calms the floppy feeling you get with slacker bikes while also simulating the hand to front axle position of a bike with a head tube angle about 5 degrees slacker for a lower endo angle.
Arcs out when turning instead of arcing in like a traditional forward offset stem does. Due to this, when you are leaning the bike over through corners the Reversed offset keeps you towards the outside of the bike to properly load your side knobs, while also helping you to lean the bike over even more for a kinematically tighter turn.
Along with the more rearward rider position helps to resist the front wheel tucking in and jackknifing you over the front at the extremes of steering angles.
Along with the more rearward rider position helps the bike to oversteer and carve in loose conditions with a predictable rear wheel drift and better feel of the contact patch of the front tire.
Along with the more rearward rider position and Raised height allows for a softer fork setup optimized for more traction and comfort with less need for geometry preservation.

By far the best upgrade I’ve made to my bike!

I'm always on the lookout for mtb products that will help me shred. This is by far the best upgrade I've made to my bike! There is a bit of a learning curve. But, once I got used to the change, it has been fantastic (it took one ride, and some tinkering). My cornering has improved immensely and climbing has gotten much more ergonomic. Jumps and bunnyhops have become way less laboring. Descending at steep degrees is well under control too, and I'm letting off the brakes more. The build quality is incredible. I am the heaviest rider I know of, and I charge fast and hard. I need components that are stout and strong. Once I put hands on the RR Stem, I knew I'd be fine. It's plenty strong, and very well made. Overall, riding with the RR Stem has been a major improvement. I actually dread the idea of going back to a standard stem. I highly recommend this for any rider that is interested in upgrading their mtb experience.

It really has improved my riding

I love my new RR Stem ! After hearing about the RR Stem I decided to try it out. I am 6'3" and I love how it sets me up into a much more comfortable riding position. It really has improved my riding from the steep decents , cornering and drops. Climbing is more comfortable and just took a little adjusting in my body position. It has lived up to what I was looking for. The only downside that I can think of is that I had to replace my front brake cable because of not enough slack in it. Overall I really love it.

Installed on a NukeProof Scout hardtail for bike #1, liked so much installed on a YT Jeffsy as well.

I am a taller rider, 6' 5". Historically long rides are not fun as I quite simply do not fit correctly on the legacy sizes/geometry. Also refuse to do something to the bike to make it fit, but looks silly. I came across the video of Bronson and noticed how comfortable his position looked and was 'Sold American'. Installed on a NukeProof Scout hardtail for bike #1, liked so much installed on a YT Jeffsy as well. Evidently stem was designed for the Enduro side where I am mostly trail riding. My fatigue has decreased dramatically and speed has increased. Being able to sit in a more neutral position and have hands closer to the body is great for climbing, and being able to get that weight towards the rear in a neutral position for downhills is fantastic.

Tried on a whim and fell in love

I bought this after seeing Berm Peak's excellent review, and although Seth was lukewarm about climbing with it, I decided to give it a shot on a "what the hell" basis. It took me a couple rides to get used to, but now that my brain has adapted I'm completely in love with this. Yes it makes your bike look "different" but you don't notice when you're flying down the trail at higher speed and in more control than ever before. This is one component that will I will move from bike to bike in the future!

Instantly transformed my XC bike into a Trail bike

I recently bought a Norco Bigfoot VLT and love everything about it except for the stock geometry. It was made for XC riding in snow and I wanted a fat eBike for ripping summer trails. Swapping the stem to the RR changed almost everything about the bike for the better: body position is more comfortable, steering is more nimble because the front end whips around much more easily, and I'm much more confident on downhills, berms, etc. because my center of gravity is much lower and farther back. No exaggeration, it has multiplied how fun MTB is by several times. This single part has changed the whole game for me, which hasn't happened since getting my first dropper seatpost over a decade ago. Cannot recommend this thing enough.
