Not very hopeful for this but maybe one of you guys knows of one that I don't. Looking for a Boxxer Direct Mount that is fairly light and not too expensive. Catch is it needs to be at least 60mm long. The only 60mm stem I know of is the Holzfeller and that's neither cheap or light. Currently got a nice Answer stem that's 55mm but would like a little extra breathing space for the faster tracks.

Also does anyone know of a spacer kit for under the stem that doesn't cost £20? Seems a little excessive for what they are, especially when I could just move the crown up the steerer a little more.

    I believe that Thomson make one, or at least did. I also recall from an article that Enve were going to make dm stems in carbon fibre at 50mm and 60mm - if their wheelset prices are anything to go by it will seriously lighten your wallet in the process.

    Point One racing make an adjustable 47.5 - 57.5mm stem that weighs 132g - http://pointoneracing.myshopify.com/col ... nfinite-dm
