Insight: Proper – Wedge Stem
Over the years, stem technology has changed up pretty drastically. They’ve gone from these blocks of alloy steel that had 6 (sometimes 8!) bolts in them to keep your bars and fork connected while holding that headset in place all the way down to these crazy CNC machined to the max stems with one bolt holding it all together. It just goes to show how much innovation has come to a part like a stem over BMX’s fairly short history. A few weeks back, the guys at Proper Bike Co. let me in on a wedge based stem system that’s been in the works for a couple a years now. After being put on the back burner for a while, they’ve finally designed something they’re totally happy with and are getting the test results they want in order to really give it that Proper stamp of approval. All though the stem won’t be out for a few months, we figured it would be cool to give you guys a sneak peek at both versions of this stem and find out what really went into the making of it. This is what Jamie over a Proper had to say… Let’s take a closer look!
QBP Now Carrying Subrosa
Live in the U.S? It just got a whole hell of a lot easier for your local shop to get Subrosa products! They’re now being distributed by QBP! Check out a few words about the news below!
“QBMX is extremely proud to finally, and officially, let the cat out of the bag. We had been talking and working with Subrosa to add their products to our catalog and come mid June we will start seeing their products available for bike shops to order. Awesome!
What does this mean? Well, it means that Subrosa is more accessible now. More bikes shops have the ability to bring this kick ass product into their store for their customers. Whether you’re a bike shop, consumer, hater, lover, rider, or all-around-nice-person… go to Subrosa’s website and check out all of the cool stuff we’re going to be bringing in… then get ready to pick some of it up really soon!” – Glenn Dussl / QBP
“We’re looking forward to this partnership as well. The biggest part being that Subrosa will now be available to many more shops, and riders. I’m so happy to work with people that want to help spread the word about Subrosa and BMX in such a positive way, and that’s exactly what QBP is about. Combining their efforts with Subrosa Brand’s current U.S.A. distro, Sparky’s Distribution, it will soon be even easier for everyone from our loyal fans, to brand new riders, to pick up some great Subrosa products.” -Ryan Sher / Subrosa
