wat does the size of the stem mean and y does it matter

The stem is the distance between the two mounts. If you have the current bike fit perfectly for you the raised position will give a more comfortable ride. However, a stem too short Mayake you bend your back or arms more than what is comfortable. While unlikely a stem too long will make you ride with arms too stretched for comfort.

the stem is the tube thats sticks up through the front of the frame the size of the stem on nearly all bikes is 11/8" stems,unless its a more expensive one which have a tapered stem which is bigger

90mm is the length. What this stem does, is raise the handle bar height to a more comfortable position. If you use or have a 90mm stem on your bike and it works in terms of length, then buy a 90mm stem to raise the bar height. It will come up about an inch.

Stem must correct size for your handlebars. Stem must also correct size to match your fork. I'd take your bike to a bike shop to see what size fork and handlebars your stem can use to be sure.

The previous reviewer is correct about the length of the stem. But also you need to have a steerer (the tube that sticks up from the front fork) that is 1 1/8 diameter.

I just now measured mine with measuring tape, so it's in inches, hope that's okay. Those bars are 21 inches apart at the bottom bar ends, the part that is widest and lowest. They are 10 inches apart from where you place your hands on the top, like if you divide the top (highest) bar at the point where the stem clamps on, and measure from the center of each side, it's 10 inches. I measured also the top bar from where it really starts to curve, about midway through that top curve all the way across to the other curve is 15 inches. Hope this helps.

I'm not sure. I got two different stems, and only one fits. Not sure which is which anymore. Sorry.

it refers to the length of the threaded part of the "stem" that holds the hands...how thick is the clock face? I used it to go through a piece of wood and this was the longest I could find and it worked pretty well. Hope that helps.

Shape and diameter both matter. I measured my nostril and sent that info along with a pic to Woody Knows, and they recommended a size that worked perfectly.

The stem is 3-1/4". This is the reason I like these glasses, the stem isn't longer than the bowl depth.

If you mount it at the farthest limit mark your handlebars center will be mounted approx. 10" above the top of your neck tube. My stock stem was only 3" at it's highest point! This is so much more comfortable for a taller rider!

The motor size doesn't make a difference. It the stem is sometimes too long.

My recollection is that it comes with 3 pieces that you can connect to each other and/or to the piece that holds the stem. These 3 pieces are 2 pieces of 12 inches and one of 15 inches. So you can do: 12 in, 15 in, 24 in, 27 in

The Avenir stem fits a 1 1/8" threadless steerer and has a 31.8 mm diameter handlebar clamp that can be reduced in diameter to 26 mm through the use of shims provided, in case your bar is smaller diameter. You need to determine if you have a threadless steerer and measure diameters on your current setup, including the handlebar. A caliper is a useful tool for this purpose - more accurate than a tape measure.

Hello,Scott,..As far as I can tell,the stem is probably a screw in with a bolt.It is a great stand.Nice and heavy and sturdy.

I replaced a 6 degree 120 mm stem with it. The old stem was long low and aggressive. The Origin8 stem is much kinder to the neck and upper back. I plan to get another one for my other mountain bike.

The main concern for the fit is that your stem supports a 1' diameter handle bar.The shorter handle bar is not a problem

The stem should be a standard diameter for all Moen bathroom faucets. The cartridge diameter may be different depending on the model.

The valve stem on the tube I got was rather short, maybe about an inch long not counting the threaded part.
