Any ideas for lighter stem for Cannondale? Syntace is doing one for VRO system - allows to move the bar front/ back/ high/ low. Do you know any other producers?

PS. Not that I am not happy with the current one, but still it could be nicer looking and little bit lighter. Would it affect my performance? - NOT. I am looking it just for pleasure of having a nicer and lighter bike.

The Syntace VRO is heavier than a Can stem with a medium/light riser bar. I had one on my singlespeed but swapped it out to save weight (now a Can stem with Yeti Carbon).

The adjustability is good though, and they are SUPER stiff.
