FAQs

What tools do I need to install the stem?

You'll need a hex key (Allen wrench) to tighten the stem and handlebar bolts.

What is the weight of the stem?

The weight is approximately 310g for the 100mm version.

Can I use this stem on a modern mountain bike?

No, this stem is designed for bikes with a 1-inch threaded steerer tube, which are typically found on older road or touring bikes.

What is the handlebar clamp diameter?

The handlebar clamp diameter is 26.0mm.

How do I measure my steerer tube?

Use a ruler or caliper to measure the outer diameter of the steerer tube. It should be 1 inch for compatibility with this stem.

Where can I find replacement parts?

Replacement bolts can often be found at your local bike shop or online retailers that sell bicycle components.

Troubleshooting

Stem feels loose or wobbly.

Tighten the stem bolt inside the steerer tube. Ensure it's not over-tightened.

Handlebars are not secure.

Check and tighten the handlebar clamp bolts to the recommended torque.

Stem doesn't fit in the steerer tube.

Verify that your bike has a 1-inch threaded steerer tube. The Murex stem is not compatible with other sizes.

Difficulty adjusting stem height.

Loosen the stem bolt and gently tap the stem to adjust the height. Ensure the quill is not seized.
