ShockStop Stem Installation & Setup

[@Halbmond]

I just need to say THANK YOU! I looked at the cryptic installation papers that came with my Redshift products and just saw question marks, and hoped for some sort of video tutorial. But this is one of the best-explained tutorials I have ever seen! I also really love your comments about what 1.5-2.5Nm feels like, that’s so easy to understand and useful! 🙌

[@darrenprior6339]

I just fitted one to my steel-framed Trek 520 touring bike. The difference is astonishing. Prior to fitting the bike would give me huge hand and shoulder pains. It was so bad I thought my teeth were going to fall out on some road trips. Very unenjoyable. After fitting the bike is an absolute joy. It has basically erased fatigue. Cannot recommend it highly enough

​@@Redshiftsports Hello. I didnt understand the instructions. I have a height of 186 centimeters, weight 81 kilograms. What plastic parts do I need to install inside the takeaway?

[@gsmith4679]

I just installed my Shockstop Stem on my Priority 600 and it’s excellent. This thing really works, it takes the trail chatter out of the bars and is so much more comfortable and smooth, it really is excellent. I decided to install the elastomers for one weight class higher than me as I didn’t want too much movement in the bars and I like how the bike feels. The elastomers should get a bit softer after a few rides and I may re-adjust depending on if they get too soft. Follows the instructions, watch the video and go ride.

[@adams7043]

I just installed the shock stop stem using this video. The only tricky bit was reinstalling the preload wedge as it took some force to get the screw aligned. Other than that: the stem combined with the seat post from Redshift are brilliant.

Is there an elastomer #1 and #2 position.....I mean, does it matter if #1 is installed on left or right ?

[@p0ddie]

Not an engineer and just installed mine but: probably not. Orientation and position for both is crucial, which is where doesn’t matter.

[@GS-pk9rd]

​@p0ddie this is confusing as the instructions refer to elastomer 1 and 2 with different combinations, eg 70/60 1 and 2 combination for lighter riders than 80/50 1 and 2 combination for heavier riders.. but the totals are the same, so surely knowing what is position 1 and 2 is critical?

[@johngump1413]

Same question, noticed in video he installed higher numbered elastomer on the left side when looking into the stem from in front of the bike, so I guess I'll try that way just in case it matters.

Hi, just fitted the stem following this excellent video. But I switched elastomers and when I put the preloaded back in it has moved the elastomer from the vertical position, is this normal?

[@Redshiftsports]

Thanks for reaching out! I believe we just responded to your recent email with a few images. That should answer your question but essentially it is perfectly normal to see elastomers 'deform' as you are installing the preload wedge. Let us know if you haven't received our email response. It could have gone to your spam. Thanks!

[@Izmirization]

I bought this and just now saw the warning about swept back bars. I have a Kona HAND Plant cruiser bars on my ebike which have a mild sweep. Would this be compatible with those bars? I really love the seatpost and want this to work so bad!

[@Redshiftsports]

Hi Benjamin, sorry that it wasn't more clear about the Shockstop not working as well with swept-back bars. That being said, it does depend a lot on the length of stem you purchased and the amount of sweep in the bars. Why don't you reach out to [e-mail], we'd be happy to discuss this further and see if there are any options for you!

[@bivibikebaggins]

Next purchase for my off road touring bike... question ? do you get all elastomers ( for all settings) unlike my G4 LT seapost as that adds extra expense !

[@Redshiftsports]

Yes! You receive all 5 elastomers (2 pre-installed in the stem, and 3 more in the box) to allow you to customize the suspension feel to your liking.

[@Bullitluna]

I'm thinking about ordering the stem and seat post. I have a question about the stem, how well does it with suspension forks on my hybrid.

[@Redshiftsports]

Hi Zeeb - the stem and post will work well on a bike that has a suspension fork. For the stem in particular, it is pretty complimentary if you set it up to deal with the high frequency wide of things. Obviously, the travel is very small compared to a typical suspension fork but it will add to the overall suspension feel of the bike. Thanks

[@MrTerresainte]

Is there room inside for the hydraulic brake cables and the e-bike electricity cables?

[@Redshiftsports]

Thanks for the question. You are not able to run any cables or wires inside the stem but you can run those under the stem with no issue. Thanks

[@DoomOfConviction]

What a well documented and engendered product, I was impressed before even riding it. That’s what you get when you deal with cyclists! 😊

[@notmenowhere]

I would like you know what torque wrench you are using.

[@givetofu]

Hi there, 2 questions: 1: In the video the elastomers are below the preload wedge at first. Referring to the manual, the elastomers need to be always above the preload wedge, regarding if the stem is mounted in +/- 6° - super confusing. 2: Out of factory, the elestomers/stem is shipped in +6° for a rider weight between 135-155lbs, if that fits for me, is it save to just install the stem without touching the preload wedge/bolt/elastomers? Thanks and thanks for the great product!

[@Redshiftsports]

You are correct that the elastomers always need to be in the top - and good eyes noticing they were on the bottom at first - that was because we installed in the -6 deg and needed to swap them from default. The stem is ready to ride out of the box and we actually recommend everyone give it a try if they want the +6 deg orientation and see how it feels and then adjust from there. Thanks

[@givetofu]

@@Redshiftsports Thanks for the fast reply - after rewatching the video and listing carefully, i noticed why it was kinda "flipped" first. Had my first ride yesterday and it was a blast! Cheers

[@Redshiftsports]

@@givetofu so glad the stem is feeling good!

[@chuchuchip]

I was taught NOT to use a torque wrench as a ratchet. I use a "T" style allen wrench.

[@Marek-bv6lf]

The stems come in two different lenghts 80 and 100 mm, each of them can be used in two positive positions +6 degree and + 30 degree (negatives are not for me). Is there any difference in effectiveness between +6 and +30 degree?

[@Redshiftsports]

Hi @Marke-bv6lf - the stem actually comes in a number of lengths/angles: we have the +/-6 deg which is setup to default to +6 and that comes in 80, 90, 100, 110, and 120mm and then the +30 deg comes in the 80 and 100mm lengths. The +6 versus the +30 is only a matter of how you want your handlebar setup and the stem is just as effective in both orientations. If you have any additional questions the best way to reach us is to email our tech support at [e-mail] - thanks

[@Marek-bv6lf]

How durable are the elastomers? Does it make sense to purchase an auxiliary set with the stem?

[@Redshiftsports]

Hi @Marek-bv6lf - the elastomers are super durable. You do not need to get any spares. In fact, I think the only elastomers we have replaced are ones that get misplaced. The stem is designed such that it never compresses the elastomers beyond a safe level and the material we use is very robust and holds up really well. We have many many riders who are using the same elastomers since 2016. Thanks

[@ekos4600]

I just installed this stem and suspension work fine. But I found another problem, my flat bar shake right and left, I've tightened the pivot bolt but still no change. What should I do? Thanks

[@tubesockets120v]

What is the design difference of the 80 mm Redshift stem that make elastomer swapping a different procedure?

[@Redshiftsports]

Great question. The 80mm stem was introduced after we initially created the 90-120mm length stems. In order to get it that short we had to change the internal pre-load process and so it is slightly different because we reduced the length of some of the internal components. And because they were changed we added the install tool to allow the pre-load process. We have since introduced a 55 and 70mm stem and again changed the internal mechanism in order to achieve such a short length. Thanks

[@andrewcooper3388]

Is this stem compatible with the giant hydrolic brake stem system, what are the spaces between the bolts

[@Redshiftsports]

Hi Andrew - Unfortunately, the Giant Conduct stem faceplate has a different bolt pattern than the ShockStop Stem. The conduct faceplate has bolts that are 40mm apart vertically and 22mm apart horizontally whereas the ShockStop has the bolts 32mm apart horizontally. So, the conduct faceplate will not mount to the ShockStop stem - but we have had a few customers who have opted to remove the conduct faceplate and have the brakes changed at their local bike shop. So, if you really do want the stem this is a possibility and you can talk with your bike shop to see what it will entail. Thanks!

[@TomatoDave]

His instructions regarding that the top of stem should be 2-3 mm above top of steerer tube seems inconsistent with written instructions that “the top headset spacer (or top of the stem if all spacers are positioned below the stem) is slightly above the type of the steerer tube.” My steerer tube is slightly higher than top of steerer tube, but I have two spacers between stem and top tube cap for a 2-3 mm space between cap and the top of stem. Is that acceptable?

[@Redshiftsports]

Hi David - you have done it correctly and sorry for any confusion. As long as there is space between the top cap and the top of the steerer (either the stem clamp is above or spacers are slightly above) you are doing it right and will have things correctly setup. If you have any additional questions or need anything you can always email us at [e-mail] - thanks

Is a torque wrench required for proper installation?

[@juanargueta5988]

Which elastomers do i used for heaviest riders on paper says 60&50 which to me makes no sense whent it comes with 70,80&90 options

[@Redshiftsports]

HI Juan - thanks for the question. If you are using the stem with a flat bar then using the 50/60 combo is pretty stiff. But you are right you could make the stem even more stiff going all the way to 80/90 but with a flat bar that is pretty much rigid. Most flat bar riders will be using a single elastomer which is why you don't see the bigger combos called out for a flat bar. For a drop bar you can see in the chart that the stiffest combo is 80/90. Hope that helps and if you have any additional questions feel free to email us at [e-mail] and we can help you out!

[@2020mike1]

Is it safe hide an AirTag in the open space in the stem body?

[@Redshiftsports]

Great question. I would be cautious because the mechanism for the suspension is inside the stem body so if you didn't secure the tag to a spot that was not touching anything else it might get damaged - and if it got loose it would almost certainly get caught in something and might damage the stem and the tag. Thanks

[@addiecusack1530]

The bolt that secures the wedge comes with a small silver screw do you need to fix it with the large black bolt that comes with the pack ?? Many thanks

[@Redshiftsports]

Hi there - I am guessing you have the 80mm version which includes a 2nd tool for installing the wedge - this tool is used to seat the wedge in place and then it is secured with the silver bolt and the install tool is removed. If you visit our website you can find instructions and videos for the 80mm version (there is also a link at the beginning of this video).

[@stargazer3284]

Why only 1 elastometer for flat bars, what would happen if you use two?

[@Redshiftsports]

Since flat bars don't have the same leverage that drop bars do, the stem doesn't require as much resistance. If you used two elastomers, you might not notice the suspension travel.

Can I use this with a carbon steerer tube?

[@mariocampos1969]

I had no success with installation. My model is a 110mm one, used in +6° position. I am trying to put it on a flatbar handlebar (hybrid bike), using a single 70kg (blue) elastomer. I weight 92 kg. I found no problems in insering the elastomer into one of the upper slots while pulling the stem up. I made sure I did push it to the bottom of the slot. Thereafter I insert back the wedge and start screwing it back while keeping downward pressure. The issue is that I reach 2.0 Nm torque only after about 10 turns, and not about 30 as expected. I am afraid to apply more torque and damage the thread. Assembling everything back using such torque ends by leaving the handlebar loose, with no resistance at all to vertical movement. I suspect using another elastomer will make no difference, since the issue seems to be the absence of precompression. I believe I reached 2 Nm by only countering the thread resistance, before even starting to compress the elastomer. I would appreciate hints on how to proceed here.

[@Tazdeviloo7]

Bromptons don't have stems so I don't see how this would be possible. The bend in the handlebar serves to flex a little bit. I find the P-bars to have the most flex followed by the M. Try changing to Ergon grips with the wing if you don't have them already.
