## Overview

The REDSHIFT ShockStop Suspension Stem is a high-performance bike handlebar stem designed to absorb up to 70% of road and trail vibrations with 20mm of vertical suspension travel. Featuring five tunable elastomers, it offers customizable comfort without compromising steering precision. Compatible with standard 1-1/8" steerer tubes and 31.8mm handlebars, this maintenance-free stem enhances control, reduces rider fatigue, and transforms any road, gravel, hybrid, or e-bike into a smoother, faster machine.

## Description

REDSHIFT ShockStop Suspension Stem The Shockstop system is a revolutionary short-travel suspension system designed for all riders. The ShockStop Suspension Stem is one of the most cost-effective ways of finding more comfort at the handlebars. It allows you to ride faster, farther, and more comfortably on the bike you already own rather than investing in a brand new bike. It adds front-end shock absorption, smoothing out rough terrain, absorbing road bumps, shocks, and vibrations. Ride Farther ~ Ride Faster ~ Maintain Control The shock-absorbing bike stem effectively absorbs bumps and vibrations while reducing fatigue and strain. It offers suspension travel providing up to 20mm of travel at the handlebars. It has the ability to smooth out rough terrain without being obtrusive. It reduces the accumulation of fatigue that happens as your body absorbs bumps and vibration, so you can ride farther and faster. It does not compromise steering responsiveness, so you can take control.

Review: Nice performance enhancement for non-suspension all-road/gravel bikes - I purchased this in May 2017, and it has been a constant fixture on both of my gravel/all-road bikes since then (initially a 2015 GT Grade Carbon and for the last year an Ibis Hakka MX). Both bikes and stem have seen substantial hard usage off-road on some of the roughest tracks you might imagine (The photo is from an Exmoor crossing, Google "riding ridgeway foul weather" for more on another particular soggy adventure). Cons: - Weight, it's a bit heavier than a standard stem. - A bit more complicated than a standard stem and the bearings will eventually wear out (still good Feb 2019). Pros: - Very robust and well engineered - aside from oiling once, no maintenance but yet remains silent in operation with no signs of any bearing play. - No impact on bike handling or pedalling efficiency - even with slightly softer pre-load than recommended (to make things a bit easier off-road) I am unable to detect any downside. - Works - it is noticeably more comfortable. Some tracks can now be ridden at a speed that previously would have either had me in the ditch or seeing double. - Enables riding bumpy sections faster - maybe placebo but Strava times, particularly when paired with a ThudBuster LT (not so high quality), are noticeably faster. In summary On a bike, your backside and your hands are the two points of contact that aren't designed to take frequent large impacts, and both suffer when they do. Having this installed has added minimal weight and made zero impact on handling and pedalling efficiency while it has made things noticeably more comfortable. This stem was the first upgrade I made to my new Ibis. It remains the first upgrade I would make to any non-suspension bike I intended to use off-road. If you currently ride on rough tarmac or off-road on a bike with no suspension, then I can highly recommend the RedShift ShockStop as an excellent comfort enhancement.
Review: It really works - Very impressed. As others have said, it's not a replacement for suspension forks, but it's much lighter and it really does take the edge off shocks from bad roads, gravel tracks etc, and also smooths out vibrations from stones and cobbles on my rigid frame hybrid bike. I found it gets better with use - after about 100 miles it's really 'settled in' and lost some stiffness, giving a significantly more comfortable ride then when new. Read the instructions before changing the elastomers as it's easy to damage the unit. The price is high for what it is, but I suppose the inventors need to recoup the development costs.

## Features

- UP TO 70% BUMP AND VIBRATION DAMPENING: Say goodbye to sore hands, wrists, and upper body, and enjoy increased control, more comfort, and a super smooth ride while the ShockStop Stem reduces the effects of impacts and vibrations
- REDUCE FATIGUE AND INCREASE EFFICIENCY: Stop wasting energy absorbing bumps and vibrations with your body and let the stem dampen the terrain
- 20MM OF DAMPED SUSPENSION TRAVEL: Just the right amount of vertical compliance without sacrificing any stability or compromising steering, plus in the lateral direction the stem is as rigid as a standard stem allowing you to sprint or climb out of the saddle with confidence
- TUNABLE SUSPENSION: The 5 swappable elastomers let you dial in the perfect stiffness and feel
- COMPATIBILITY: Easy to install and maintenance free, the ShockStop stem fits bikes with standard 1- ⅛ inch (28.6mm) steerer tubes (where the stem attaches to the bike frame) and fits 31.8mm handlebars (shims available separately for smaller handlebar diameters); this stem is NOT COMPATIBLE with oversized steerer tubes

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Significantly improves comfort and safety
*by A***R on 22 May 2020*

Technically brilliant although bit pricey but it works very well! Road surface where I cycle in Surrey UK, have, over the last few years, been getting progressively worse due to poor road maintenance. Each ride would inevitably result in hitting holes in the road or avoiding them at the last second, not just uncomfortable but dangerous. Looked at some Youtube reviews and comparisons between the Specialised Future Shock and the Redshift Stem suspension. Didn't want to buy a new bike so I went ahead and bought the Redshift Stem and frankly glad I did. Has made a huge difference, gives both comfort and confidence on the roads. Means I don't have to steer out of the way of every bump in the road apart from the larger potholes. Brilliant product!
