interested in hearing people's experience with carbon stems. last year I ran a carbon bar with an alu stem (FSA K-wing and OS140) and really enjoyed the dampening. there is a noticeable effect compared to alu bars however as a crit racer I was concerned with how the carbon bar would hold up in the event of a crash. I'm thinking I'd like to go get a carbon stem and pair that with a alu bar for next season. any thoughts or specific stem brand recs? Are the carbon stems flexy in any way?
