Front-of-bike real estate gets crowded fast. A computer, a light, maybe a camera — and suddenly the handlebar is a clutter of clamps fighting for the same few centimeters next to your stem. Ritchey's Universal Stem Mount solves that by moving accessories off the bar and onto the faceplate of the stem, where they sit centered, out of the way of your hands, and slightly elevated for easier viewing.

The mount is

forged and machined from alloy, with extended-length hardware included so the existing faceplate bolts can pass through both the mount and the stem with full thread engagement. Two variants cover the Ritchey stem lineup: the narrow version fits C220 (WCS, Classic, Trail), Toyon, and 4-Axis stems with faceplate bolt spacing between 8.4mm and 28.1mm, and the wide version covers the Switch stem along with C220 and Toyon, with bolt spacing between 22mm and 35mm. Measure your stem's faceplate bolt spacing before you order — that's the only spec that determines which one you need.

Two accessory interfaces are offered. The GoPro version uses the standard GoPro two-tab mount, which means it'll accept GoPro cameras directly along with the wide ecosystem of computers and lights that ship with GoPro-compatible adapters (most Garmin out-front mounts, Wahoo, and a long list of light manufacturers). The Supernova version is shaped specifically for Supernova dynamo headlights and uses Supernova's mounting interface — useful for randonneurs and commuters running E3 or M99 lights who don't want a separate bar clamp eating up cockpit space....
