very light and well constructed stem, went nicely on my Trek checkpoint SL5.
I took some fingernail polish remover(acetone). And took off some of the extra branding. It didn't affect the base matte black finish.

Purchased this stem and matching EC 90 SLX bar for a new build on a Specialized S-works Aethos frame. Emphasis was on light weight. The graphics are understated but classy and match the bar. The weight listed in the description is 138 g which is incorrect. My 90 mm stem weighs 114 grams which is super light for an alloy stem (or even a carbon stem). This SL stem is priced $60 more than the non SL version, but the surprise is that the SL stem includes the Easton faceplate Garmin mount which normally sells for $20 separately and is a nice integrated mount (Garmin only). This added bonus plus lighter weight offers great value over comparable lightweight stems.

Don't have a ton of miles on this things, but so far, so amazing. My other bike is a more traditional, classic steel frame with 1-inch steerer and quill stem. And about the lightest you can go with a quill stem is 250g (that's after cutting the column down a little too). So to get stem that is ~100g is pretty nice. I like the anodized black, and Easton does a tasteful logo IMO, as logo design goes.
