The front of the new Ritchey RL1 Switch stem features Ritchey’s legendarily logical four-bolt handlebar clamp design seen on many Ritchey stems – it’s stiff, practical, and secure. Beyond that, the heart of this innovative stem is designed to stealthily conceal cables into the headset and frame. Up to three cables – such as for the rear brake, shifter, electronic drivetrain or even dropper post - are effortlessly integrated with the Ritchey Switch System spacers and Switch headset (both sold separately) to cleanly route the hidden cables into the frame. Ritchey RL1 products are designed and built for the budget-minded cyclist looking for components to upgrade their current ride or to complete their next build - without compromising on the confidence and quality for which Ritchey products are known.
