The Rapide is intended for 35mm bars not the more common 31.8mm. Possibly corrected with a shim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Sywurm Posted April 28, 2023 Share Rapide sells stems for both 31.8 and 35mm bars. I own both. Me rida my bicycle and dasilvarsa 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waveduke Posted April 28, 2023 Share I would be suspicious of brands that feel the need to copy established brand's corporate identity. At least for load bearing parts like a stem... 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Particularly if you are using a carbon bar with it. guidodg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
