Cane Creek GXC Bicycle Stem 80mm Black 31.8 Clamp

An impressively lightweight rigid stem that has a high-polish finish and is remarkably affordable. It matches the overall size, shape, and proportions of modern gravel and cross-country bikes, while maintaining a tasteful amount of traditional appeal.

Half the price of other stems in its weight class, GXC is an easy way to improve your bike's look while reducing weight.

Pairs beautifully with all Cane Creek headsets and our Invert gravel fork.

Note: Due to the shorter length, the 50mm GXC Stem does not have the ghosted, laser-etched Cane Creek logos on the sides featured on the other size offerings.


The GXC Stem was specifically conceived for gravel and cross-country mountain bikes, a segment that has lacked attention and representation in the world of premium, aftermarket stems. It has a design that matches the overall size, shape, and proportions of modern gravel and cross-country frames.

Ranging from 94g - 120g, this stem falls right in line with some of the most lightweight stems available, but comes in at a fraction of the price. To get another stem with this level of premium finish and minimal weight, riders have historically had to spend $120 - $200. The GXC stem is just $79.99 USD - that's nearly half the price.
