Specifically developed for road cycling, this high-quality stem is equipped with a tough 6061 alloy construction that provides a strong and secure connection between your handlebar and your fork's steerer tube. 3T has also kitted out this version with double bolts on its steerer clamp for a dependable hold with extra safety. Another highlight is its reverse faceplate bolts, which give the faceplate a more elegant design. Coming complete with a stealth black finish and the classic 3T rubber logo on the front, this is a lightweight upgrade for holding your steering set-up together as you clock up the miles. A stem may not seem to be the most exciting bike part, but it is in 3T's DNA to care about it in great detail. After all, no other part has such a big effect on your riding position and thus your speed, comfort and enjoyment. With the APTO, 60 years of innovation and elegance in 3T stem design come together in a moving sculpture.

Making the most of its strong aluminium build to keep you steering with precision on every ride, it features a flip-flop design for low, aggressive riding and can be reversed to give a taller position for more upright riding. With an impressive strength-to-weight ratio, it performs brilliantly across the most challenging routes, letting you manoeuvre your steering column with absolute ease from start to finish.
With a flip-flop design that allows you to fit the stem either way for a more upright seating position, this Pro model is aluminium-made to stay durable and strong through the hardest of rides. With a four-bolt, detachable clamp design, your bar is held securely in place without compromising manoeuvrability, adding further strength to your cockpit. Designed to protect composite-made bars from stresses and impacts, it is sized to fit most common bars and steerers, making it a versatile choice for the avid rider.
Steerers and handlebars made of composite materials can easily be compromised by poor clamp design. To assure the integrity of the ARX clamp interface, we perform our own tests that go way beyond the demands of CEN standards. We even tested this new stem’s compatibility with other brands of handlebars and it passed with flying colours. ARX PRO is made of Al 2010 and has stainless-steel bolts. PRO offers an ideal balance to riders who insist on top-class performance at the keenest price. This group typically includes many amateurs who purchase their own equipment. PRO components often employ traditional materials such as Al 7075 and Al 6061 alloys to contain fabrication costs. But like all 3T products, they benefit from the 3T Intelligent Production Lifecycle, assuring right-first-time design and quality, at prices that meet the needs of today’s discriminating bike riders. Count on PRO components to perform to the highest levels.
