Hope

XC Stem

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"XC race courses keep getting more technical, and this stem is built to handle them. The CNC-machined aluminum keeps weight low while offering incredible stiffness, so I never feel like I’m losing power through the front end. The 0° rise and two length options make dialing in my fit easy. Whether I’m racing or just out for a fast-paced ride, this stem keeps my setup responsive and dialed."

XC racing is no longer just about pure weight savings—modern courses demand a balance of lightweight efficiency and stiffness, and the Hope XC Stem is designed to deliver both. Crafted from CNC-machined 2014-T6 aluminum, it provides a direct, confident feel at the handlebars without the noodly flex of traditional XC stems. Whether we’re sprinting for a holeshot or picking our way through rock gardens, this stem keeps the front end precise and responsive.

Available in 70mm and 90mm lengths with a 0° rise, it allows for a race-ready cockpit setup, whether we prefer a low, aggressive stance or a slightly more neutral position. Stainless steel bolts offer durability and keep the stem locked in place even under heavy load. Proudly designed, tested, and manufactured in Barnoldswick, UK, this stem is built to take on the evolving demands of cross-country racing and beyond.
