The Significance of BMX Stems in Freestyle Riding
BMX stem holds paramount importance as it serves to connect the handlebar to the fork. Within the stem lies the mechanism for compression, ensuring a secure bond between these components. The BMX bike stem significantly influences the feel of your bike's front end, with various lengths and heights available to alter stability and responsiveness.
Find the Right BMX Stem Size
Choosing the correct size BMX stem revolves around two key measurements: reach/length and rise.
The reach of the BMX stem refers to the distance from the center of the fork tube hole to the center of the handlebar clamp. A common reach is around 50 mm, with longer reaches providing greater stability and shorter ones enhancing responsiveness.
The rise of the BMX stem denotes the height at which the stem positions the handlebars above its body's center. This factor dictates the handlebars' elevation and typically ranges from 8 to 36 mm. Opting for more or less height is largely based on personal comfort and riding preference.
Top Load vs. Front Load BMX Stems
BMX stems offer two mounting options: top load and front load. Front load stems position the handlebar in front of the stem, often preferred by taller riders for its extended reach.
Conversely, top load stems position the handlebar on top of the stem, offering greater height. This type is recommended for those who prefer riding with taller handlebars.
A crucial consideration when selecting a stem is ensuring its diameter matches that of your handlebars. This information can be found in the product specifications, with BMX handlebars typically available in 22.2 mm (regular) or 25.4 mm (oversized) diameters.
