Okay guys, can anybody help me which stem I must buy. I'm almost always riding dirt, so I make big jumps.

Thanx guys. I'm now using Odyssey parts, just because my local bikeshop sells it. Searching for S&M online right now !

S&m challenger forsure
Have you seen the new Credence stem? Updated version of the Challenger and pretty much everything is better. The back faceplate bolts don't go all the way through anymore, and the back clamping area is shorter so no more pinching (The Challenger's greatest flaw imo). Plus it's slimmer. It also doesn't have any external machining, real smooth. Instead it's machined internally in the clamping area.

I like the Odyssey Lincoln stem alot. It doesn't slip and it has a very knee friendly design since it doesn't use pinch bolts to clamp onto the fork's steerer tube. I really like that since it gives me more room on the bike. Also my bars have only moves once since I've had this stem and I'm pretty sure it is just because I had not tightened the bolts down enough.

Not a single bad recommendation other than duct tape.

Don't know, strength is the only thing that matters to me. And a reasonable price off course......

I would just get a S&M Challenger or a Fit BF then.
