I have 3 of these. I must really like them.
It's hard to get too excited about a stem, but this one has been fitting the bill for me for years now, and I should give it a nod. Very secure clamping, low weight for not too much money and it looks dynamite with the matching WCS bar. The bar is a great shape, very stiff, very light and not too expensive, also!

Light, stiff and looks good
I've been needing a new stem for awhile when I bought this one. I bought it mainly for it's weight vs. price and have been very happy. I think it's telling that I have noticed a difference in stiffness from my old one when I'm out of the saddle and climbing.

What a great stem
This is a great stem. The stem is light and stiff and easy to adjust and set up.
Also the stem in white looks awesome. This my second Ritchey WCS 4-Axis stem.
