FAQs
Does this stem fit 31.8mm handlebars?
No, this specific model is designed exclusively for 35mm diameter handlebars.
What is the steerer tube diameter compatibility?
This stem is designed to fit a standard 1 1/8 inch mountain bike steerer tube.
How should I tighten the faceplate bolts?
You should tighten the bolts in a cross or 'X' pattern to ensure the pressure is applied evenly across the clamping area.
Can I use this stem for downhill racing?
Yes, the Copperhead is built for rugged use, including Trail, Enduro, and other aggressive mountain biking disciplines.
Is the finish prone to fading?
The stem features a high-quality anodized finish that is highly resistant to fading and general wear compared to standard paint.
Troubleshooting
Handlebars slipping or rotating under load
Verify that your handlebar diameter is exactly 35mm and re-torque faceplate bolts to the specified value in an X-pattern.
Audible creaking coming from the stem area
Remove the faceplate, clean the contact surfaces of the stem and handlebar with isopropyl alcohol, and re-install following torque specs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the Deity Copperhead, ensure your steerer tube is clean and free of burrs. Slide the stem onto your 1 1/8 inch steerer tube and tighten the steer tube bolts to the manufacturer's recommended torque. When installing the handlebars, ensure the faceplate bolts are tightened in an even, cross-pattern to guarantee a consistent gap between the stem body and the faceplate. Periodically check the torque of all bolts after your first few rides to account for the initial settling of the components. For cleaning, use mild soap and water; avoid abrasive brushes that might damage the high-polished anodized finish.
